What Is Black Hills Gold?
Black Hills Gold is South Dakota's signature jewelry style — recognized by its distinctive tri-color leaf and grape design and its deep roots in the Black Hills region. If you've never owned a piece before or are shopping for someone new to the style, here's what makes it unique.
The Tri-Color Design
Black Hills Gold is made with a yellow gold base — typically 10k — with rose gold and green gold leaf and grape accents. The distinctive pink and green colors come from small amounts of copper (rose gold) and silver (green gold) alloyed into the base gold. The result is the immediately recognizable tri-color look that's uniquely South Dakotan.
The leaf-and-grape motif — sometimes called the "vine design" — was inspired by the Black Hills region and has remained the most recognized style since the late 1800s. No two manufacturers make it exactly alike, but the style is distinctly associated with South Dakota.
- ✔ Yellow gold base — typically 10k
- ✔ Rose gold leaf accents (copper alloy)
- ✔ Green gold grape and vine accents (silver alloy)
- ✔ Handcrafted tri-color overlay process
