New York, N.Y.—The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Health Canada and Yankee Candle has voluntarily recalled the Pine Berry Candle Ring for fire hazards. The CPSC announced the nationwide product recall on December 20, 2013.

The ring measures about 9 to 10 inches in diameter and has an opening of about 4 to 4 1/2 inches.
