All,
I have to admit, with two young children, the uncertainty about whether or not the chips contain lead is unsettling. I'm having trouble finding much of any information. Even on PCF, there seems to be only one old thread where this was discussed and that was inconclusive.
Before I start getting into the building of mixed sets and purchasing real clays, vintage casino, etc..., my plan is to start off with an interim tourney set and an interim cash set. I have 15-17 sample sets of stock china clays and ceramics. Although I may like the china clays better and they're at a slightly better price point, I'm having trouble pulling the trigger because of the concern with lead. Whereas I have less concern regarding this with the ceramics because PGI (Tiki Kings), ABC, and others have come forth saying there is no lead in their ceramic chips.
What is the current consensus out there among the PCF members on this topic? Does anyone else share this concern about the possibility of lead in chips? Does anyone know whether the china clays in particular contain lead or not (i.e. Majestics, Milanos, Pharaohs, CPS, etc...)?
