Noone's complaining about blackface to be fair, the thread title really does need changing as it's very misleading (I'm assuming that LT saw 'Blackamoor' - the company name, and perhaps misread it as 'blackface'?) I cant find any reference to anyone complaining about blackface.
The jewelry does have racist connotations for other reasons though and that's what the complaints are about. Personally I'd never heard of Blackamoor jewelery and I wouldn't have realised it was considered racist by some people, is it that widely known? I think it's reasonable to assume she just didn't know about it.
