Legend has it that good luck comes to all who wear Black Hills Gold Jewelry!Black Hills Gold is mined and manufactured exclusively in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota. For more than 100 years Black Hills Gold has been a favorite of tourists visiting the "old west" as well as a staple for the residents who live there today. Those who grew up in South Dakota are accustomed to hearing the legend of how Black Hills Gold was first created. Legend and lore of the Black Hills Gold design is that it was created by French goldsmith Henri Lebeau. When he heard of all the gold miners who were striking it rich during the 1849 Gold Rush, Henri decided to go to California and make his fortune. While crossing the rugged terrain of the Black Hills of South Dakota, Henri wandered for days hopelessly lost in the vast wilderness. Without food or water for several days, legend has it that Henri fell asleep and had a vision of running water with grape leaves floating in a stream from a nearby vineyard. The vision was real, and his life was saved. Grateful for this lifesaving vision, he created the look of Black Hills Gold Jewelry in the shape of grape clusters and leaves. This trademark unique design of rose, green and yellow gold is almost the same today as it was a century ago. Each Black Hills Gold leaf and grape cluster design is made with exquisite care and detail. Black Hills Gold jewelry must be seen to be appreciated as it truly gets more beautiful as it ages. Whether you decide on a Black Hills Gold ring, Black Hills Gold Watch, or Black Hills Gold bracelet, men and women alike will be thrilled with the hundreds of different tri-color custom designs. Black Hills Gold is created by alloying the gold with other metals to achieve the unusual tri-color effect which makes it so popular. Black Hills Gold Jewelry is native only to South Dakota and would therefore be a unique addition to anyone's jewelry wardrobe.
