What We Carry
Rings
Wedding bands, anniversary rings and everyday styles in the tri-color leaf-and-grape design. Sizing is available on most, though the tri-color construction limits what can be done to some.
Earrings & Pendants
Studs, drops, pendants and necklaces — the pieces people most often buy as gifts, and the easiest to match to something already owned.
Estate & Vintage
Inherited rings, discontinued designs and F.L. Thorpe pieces come across our counter regularly. Estate stock is never the same twice — see what is in the online shop.
Looking for a specific style, size or design we don't have? Ask about a special order. Timing depends on the style and supplier stock — plan ahead for holidays and gift occasions.
What Black Hills Gold Actually Is
Black Hills Gold is a place, not a brand. It is a tri-color style — yellow, rose and green gold worked into a leaf-and-grape design — and a 1980 federal court ruling established that jewelry sold under the name must be manufactured in the Black Hills of South Dakota. So the name tells you where a piece was made, not who made it. South Dakota made it the official state jewelry in 1988.

Bring it in and we will look at the hallmark with you — that is the fastest answer, and it costs nothing. Or text us a clear photo of the mark first.

Sizing and repair
Most Black Hills Gold rings can be sized or repaired. The tri-color work can discolour under careless heat, so intricate pieces go to a partner who knows the alloy. Full repair details →

Black Hills Gold FAQ — Mobridge, SD
Where can I buy Black Hills Gold jewelry in Mobridge?
Larsen's Jewelry & Half Interest Pawn is a jewelry store at 211 N Main St in Mobridge, SD. We carry authentic Black Hills Gold jewelry, help with specific piece requests and special orders, and can assist with matching, sizing, restoration, cleaning, and repair questions. Walk-ins welcome - no appointment needed.
Do you carry Black Hills Gold jewelry in-store?
Yes. We carry Black Hills Gold rings, earrings, pendants, necklaces, and gift styles in-store, plus estate and vintage pieces as they come available. Inventory changes often, so check current availability through our contact page if you are looking for a specific style.
Is Black Hills Gold real gold?
Yes. Authentic Black Hills Gold is karat gold, usually a 10K gold piece with the rose and green leaves in 12K gold. Some designs are sterling silver with 12K gold leaves: real gold leaves on a silver piece. The rose and green come from what the gold is alloyed with, copper for rose and silver for green, not from plating or paint. The karat stamp and maker's mark tell you which you have. Bring it in, or text a photo of the mark, and we will read it with you.
What is the difference between 10K and 12K Black Hills Gold?
Gold content. 10K is 41.7% pure gold and 12K is 50%. Most Black Hills Gold pieces carry both: the yellow body is 10K and the colored leaves are 12K. A sterling silver piece with 12K leaves is mostly silver by weight. If you ever sell, the stamps and the weight are what the offer starts from, and we read the stamps and weigh the piece in front of you before any offer.
Can you help me special order a specific Black Hills Gold piece?
Often, yes. If you are looking for a specific style, size, or design that we do not have in stock, ask about special order availability through our suppliers. Timing depends on the style and current supplier stock - plan ahead for holidays and gift occasions.
Can you help me find a matching piece?
Yes. Bring in your existing piece or send clear photos through our contact page. We can help you look for matching or complementary styles from current inventory, estate stock, or via special order.
Do you have estate or vintage Black Hills Gold?
Often, yes. Older Black Hills Gold comes across our counter regularly - inherited rings, discontinued designs, and F.L. Thorpe pieces in particular. Estate stock changes constantly and is never the same twice, so call ahead or text photos if you are hunting for a specific vintage style.
Do you repair or size Black Hills Gold rings?
Yes. Many Black Hills Gold rings can be sized or repaired, depending on the design and metal. The tri-color construction limits how some styles can be worked - intricate pieces may require specialist send-out. Visit our Jewelry Repair page for full details.
