Question: Is Black Hills gold the same as rose gold?
Answer: The rose gold leaves are the same color as rose gold because they are rose gold. The rose gold on Black Hills Gold is made in the shape of a grape leaf, the rose gold leaf is 12 karats. The 12 karat rose gold leaf is 12 parts copper and 12 parts gold to create the rose gold. The green leaf on Black Hills Gold is 12 karat green gold and is made with 12 parts silver and 12 parts gold.
This is a process from the French, during the 1400's they developed this gold alloying technique. The French Goldsmith Henri LeBeau used this historic technique while developing Black Hills Gold.
