We are committed to producing quality hand-crafted products. To ensure the integrity of the Michael Aram brand, we have implemented strict quality control standards and have partnered with trusted distributors and retailers around the world. This established relationship with authorized retailers ensures that our customers receive exceptional service and quality products.
Michael Aram’s success has made it a target of counterfeiters and unauthorized retailers selling inferior products to unsuspecting customers. When Michael Aram branded products or look-a-likes are purchased from unauthorized retailers, we cannot guarantee the quality or authenticity of the products, making them ineligible for Michael Aram’s warranty protection. This is why warranty claims must be accompanied by acceptable proof of purchase from an authorized Michael Aram retailer. Unfortunately, we regularly hear from customers who accidentally purchased counterfeit products online.
We encourage customers to avoid purchasing Michael Aram products from unauthorized retail channels such as third-party marketplaces (Amazon, Walmart, eBay), flea markets, and discount websites. Aside from the risk of receiving inferior products, or no products at all, personal information and credit card details may be vulnerable to theft or fraud, and proceeds from these purchases may be utilized to fund illegal activities.
If you suspect that a company or individual is advertising or selling counterfeit or unauthorized Michael Aram products, please contact us at help@michaelaram.com.
Why does Michael Aram include this warning on its products?
We are providing Prop 65 warning labels to inform consumers that the product contains chemicals on the State of California’s Prop 65 list. It does not mean that a product is unsafe. All Michael Aram products meet or exceed the requirements of applicable product performance and safety industry standards, as well as the federal Safe Drinking Water Act. The label simply ensures that Michael Aram is in compliance with the State of California’s Prop 65 law for warning label requirements.
What is California Proposition 65?
In 1986, California voters approved the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act (known as "Proposition 65"). Proposition 65 is a "Right to Know" statute; its purpose is to make sure people are aware, before they purchase, that the product they come into contact with contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. The statute requires a warning label even if the amount of the chemical is miniscule.
The State of California has listed over 900 chemicals that must be disclosed under Prop 65. The list, which is updated annually, includes a wide variety of chemicals that can be found in many consumer products, such as kitchen utensils, footwear and handbags, exercise equipment, photo and scrapbook albums, luggage, and many other products (even foods and beverages).
Where can I find out more information about Proposition 65?
The State of California provides Proposition 65 information on the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment website.
