The provided sources consist solely of Walmart webpage boilerplate text related to terms of use, privacy policies, and robot detection. They contain no information regarding specific gemstones, their properties, history, or significance as birthstones. Consequently, a detailed, comprehensive 2000-word article on a specific gemstone based on these sources is impossible.
This document will instead provide a summary of the limited information gleaned from the sources, framed as an overview of birthstone jewelry available at Walmart, acknowledging the severe limitations of the source material. The focus will be on the availability of birthstone jewelry, rather than the gemstones themselves.
The sources indicate that Walmart offers personalized jewelry featuring birthstones. This jewelry is available in various metals, including sterling silver, gold over silver, 10k gold, and 14k gold. The product range includes bracelets ("Blaze Bracelet") and rings ("Ettie Mother’s Ring"). The presence of “Personalized Family Jewelry” suggests that multiple birthstones can be incorporated into a single piece. The listings specifically mention options for women’s rings and bracelets.
The provided links lead to browse pages for “Jewel Zone US” within the Walmart jewelry section. This suggests that Jewel Zone US is a vendor supplying birthstone jewelry through the Walmart platform. The browse page allows filtering by brand (Jewel Zone US) and category (women’s rings).
Given the lack of substantive information about the gemstones themselves, a traditional birthstone article structure is not feasible. The following sections will address what can be inferred from the sources, presented in a limited capacity.
Availability of Birthstone Jewelry at Walmart
Walmart offers a selection of birthstone jewelry, primarily focused on bracelets and rings for women. The personalization options suggest the ability to select specific birthstones for inclusion in the jewelry. The availability of different metal options (sterling silver, gold-plated, and solid gold) caters to a range of budgets and preferences. The presence of a dedicated vendor, Jewel Zone US, indicates a consistent supply of these products.
Product Types and Materials
The sources highlight two specific product types: the “Blaze Bracelet” and the “Ettie Mother’s Ring.” The “Blaze Bracelet” is described as a personalized family jewelry item, implying the inclusion of multiple birthstones representing family members. The “Ettie Mother’s Ring” is also presented as a personalized item, specifically designed for mothers and likely featuring the birthstones of their children.
The materials used in the construction of these pieces include:
- Sterling Silver: A common and affordable metal for jewelry.
- Gold over Silver: A base of silver with a layer of gold plating, offering a gold appearance at a lower cost.
- 10k Gold: Gold alloyed with other metals to increase its durability, containing approximately 41.7% gold.
- 14k Gold: A higher gold content alloy (approximately 58.3% gold), offering greater durability and value.
Personalization Options
The emphasis on “Personalized Family Jewelry” indicates that customers can customize their purchases by selecting the birthstones that are meaningful to them. This personalization aspect is a key selling point for these products, allowing for the creation of unique and sentimental pieces. The ability to choose from different metals further enhances the personalization options.
Vendor Information
Jewel Zone US is identified as a vendor offering birthstone jewelry through Walmart. Further information about Jewel Zone US is not provided in the sources.
Limitations and Further Research
The provided sources are severely limited in their scope. They offer no information about the geological origins, gemological properties, historical significance, or metaphysical beliefs associated with any specific birthstone. A comprehensive article on birthstones requires access to detailed information from gemological databases, historical texts, and geological surveys.
To create a truly informative article, the following information would be necessary:
- List of Birthstones by Month: A complete listing of the traditional and modern birthstones for each month.
- Gemological Properties: Detailed information on the chemical composition, hardness, refractive index, and other properties of each birthstone.
- Historical Origins: The history of each gemstone, including its discovery, early uses, and cultural significance.
- Mining Locations: The primary sources of each gemstone around the world.
- Symbolism and Lore: The meanings and beliefs associated with each birthstone across different cultures.
- Care and Cleaning Instructions: Guidance on how to properly care for and clean each gemstone.
Without this information, it is impossible to fulfill the original request for a 2000-word, comprehensive article on a specific gemstone. The current document serves only as a limited overview of the availability of birthstone jewelry at Walmart, based on the extremely restricted source material.
