It is a reasonable thing to worry about, as Yunzi have had lead content in the past. You should use the link on the Yunzi page where [ext] ChiyoDad discusses this subject

As you are probably buying from a different supplier than ChiyoDad, it is possible you could be supplied with yunzi containing lead. I think the reasonable reaction to your wish to protect your child would be to buy the [ext] Lead detecting swabs that ChiyoDad used. Then use it on a couple of stones when you first open the box of stones.

Depending on your social / negotiating / communication skills, you may be able to use the lead detecting swab on a stone in the shop.

You have to make the risk judgement yourself, not rely on the advice of a random stranger on the internet who is not qualified in the subject of testing for lead in stones. A simpler approach may be to avoid the risk and just buy Korean or Japanese double convex glass stones e.g. these: [ext] het paard glass stones
