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

The heart symbolizes an unbreakable connection; it can be romantic love, the love between a parent and a child, love between friends, relatives... there are many different forms of love. Whatever the purpose of this heart, it will be a token that is appreciated; for the greatest gift one can give is the gift of love. The Rose has a rich history. Evidence shows it was grown in China about 5,000 years ago. In ancient Rome it symbolized devotion to the goddess Venus. In Christian times, it became identified with the Virgin Mary. Today, the Rose is recognized worldwide as the symbol of love, beauty, and romance. It is the national flower of both the United States and England.

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.

Upon ordering, the jewelers in South Dakota start crafting; from the casting to the hand-placed, hand-engraved leaves, it is one of the most labor intensive styles of jewelry. 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.
