Legend has it: Good Luck Comes to All Who Wear Black Hills Gold Jewelry

Sterling silver feather and leaf necklace with 12k rose gold and 12k green gold hand-sculpted grape leaves are crafted beautifully. The pendant contains no nickel; making it gentle on sensitive skin. It is suspended from a hypoallergenic rhodium plated rope chain. Rhodium is a liquid metal which is extracted from platinum after being pulled from the mine. Rhodium plating protects silver with a harder finish making it tarnish resistant. Whether you treat yourself or gift this, it will be a cherished keepsake and favorite go to fashion accessory.

Upon ordering, the jewelers in South Dakota start crafting your pendant necklace. From the casting to the hand-placed, hand-engraved leaves, it is 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 during the 1870s gold rush. He fell asleep believing he was dying. In a dream, he saw a mountain stream with grapevines growing on its banks. Upon awakening, he walked over a rise and found the stream and grapevines just like his dream and, out of 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 and silver makes this, quite simply, a great investment all around.

Made in the USA.
