Legend has it: Good Luck Comes to All Who Wear Black Hills Gold Jewelry
A vivid marquise-shaped garnet is stunningly set in the richness of this 10k yellow gold ring. The stone is nestled amid 12K rose and green leaves and hugged by a single vine of 10k gold. Garnets are January’s birthstones and the zodiac sign for Aquarius; they are also given on the 2nd and 6th wedding anniversaries. Due to the natural state of the stones, each may differ slightly in color, size and inclusions. Whether you treat yourself or gift this, it will be a keepsake for generations. This contains no nickel; it’s gentle on sensitive skin. Upon ordering, the jewelers in South Dakota start crafting your ring. From the casting to the hand-placed and hand-engraved leaves, it's one of the most labor intensive styles of jewelry.
According to legend, French goldsmith, Henri LeBeau got lost in the Black Hills of South Dakota in the 1870s gold rush. He fell asleep thinking he was dying of thirst and starvation. He dreamed he saw a mountain stream with grapevines growing on its banks. He woke and walked over a rise to see the stream and grapevines in his dream. In gratitude, dedicated his life and talents to creating jewelry in the shapes of grape clusters and leaves fashioned in rose, green and yellow gold.
Today, a series of up to 40 different steps are necessary to capture the same dramatic detail in the traditional and contemporary Black Hills Gold designs.
The rising price of gold make these, quite simply, a great investment all around.
Made in the USA.
