Why we love this deal
Jewelry is a timeless accessory, and because of that, we also think it makes a timeless gift. Now that graduation season is well underway, finding the perfect present for the grad in your life might be tricky because you want to give something meaningful and long-lasting without going overboard, but jewelry is a great way to give something personal, especially since it can be customized with an initial, a name, or a birthstone, and whenever they wear it, they’ll think of you. Although we’re sure you’d be willing to spend hundreds to show that special someone just how proud you are of them, Walmart’s latest Flash deal on the JeenMata Diamond Initial Necklace might save you a bit of money without compromising style or sparkle.
Made with lab-grown diamonds, the initial necklace is on sale for 69% off. Instead of paying the original price of $219, you can save $150 and get it for just $69 for a limited time.

Why do shoppers love it?
Although this necklace is made from heavy-duty brass, its white gold coating gives it a shine that almost makes it look more delicate than it is. The brass metal, typically made from a combination of copper and zinc, gives the necklace a durability that makes it resistant to breaking and bending, but because brass can oxidize over time — which is what can turn your skin green or cause discoloration — it’s covered in 18K white gold plating, which makes it look far more stylish and eliminates any of those unfortunate issues. It gives the brass a protective barrier against scratches and tarnishing, and it’s hypoallergenic, so those with sensitive skin don’t have to worry about irritation.
Outside of that, it simply transforms the piece of jewelry, giving it a bright, reflective platinum shine. Both the chain and charm are made from 18K white gold-plated brass, but the initial charm that hangs at the center of the necklace features small, lab-grown diamonds arranged in the letter of your choosing. In total, the carat weight for all the diamonds equals about 0.2 ct. Lab-grown diamonds give off about the same amount of shine that a real one would but at a fraction of the cost. Chemically and visually, they’re practically identical.
