Black Hills Gold

Mount Rushmore isn't the only reason South Dakota's Black Hills are famous. When Henri LeBeau came to make his fortune in the 1876 gold rush, he got lost and nearly starved. Wild grapes saved his life, so the gold jeweler immortalized those grape vines in what he called "good luck" jewelry. LeBeau's fine jewelry was an instant hit among miners hoping for a lucky gold strike, and was soon known as Black Hills gold. Some believe good luck still follows all who wear Black Hills gold jewelry!

Earrings have long been popular jewelry among women and, after several centuries of being out of fashion, men are wearing them as well. You can afford a complete wardrobe of stylish gold earrings, bracelets, necklaces and rings--jewelry that makes great fashion statements every time you wear them--statements made even better by Overstock.com's low prices.

A Black Hills gold earring isn't just plain gold, in case you wondered. Drop earrings (also called dangle earrings) in Blackhills gold often combine sapphires, topaz, onyx, pearls and other gems with precious metal. Black Hills gold accents on silver earrings are also popular. With such affordable pricing at Overstock.com, the possibilities are just this side of astounding!

Black Hills gold isn't a specific alloy, by the way, as sterling silver is; to be called Blackhills jewelry, certified gold mined in the Black Hills must be made in the traditional grape and leaf jewelry patterns. The gold can be alloyed with copper for a rose tint or with silver for green-gold earrings. Jewelers use 10k, 12k and 14k gold to produce Black Hills gold charm bracelets, Black Hills gold rings and many other fashion jewelry pieces.
