According to legend, a French goldsmith named Henri LeBeau became lost during  the "gold rush days" of the middle 1870s in the Black Hills of South Dakota. He  fell asleep believing he was dying of thirst and starvation. During 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  as he had in 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 our traditional and contemporary Black Hills Gold  designs.

Legend has it . . . Good luck comes to all who wear Black Hills Gold Jewelry.

What makes a piece of jewelry Black Hills Gold?  It has the unique traditional design comprised of pink and green gold leaves,  gold grape clusters and vines and it must, by law, be manufactured in the Black  Hills of South Dakota.
