Black Hills Gold Style Solitaire Ring

This is a decorative ring following the distinct aesthetic of Black Hills gold jewelry. The piece features a central round-cut clear gemstone, likely a diamond or cubic zirconia, held in a traditional prong setting. Flanking the center stone are ornate, tri-color gold motifs including textured grape leaves and small grape clusters. These elements appear to be crafted in yellow and rose/pink gold tones, highlighting the naturalistic vine design. The foliage shows significant detail with fine veining on the leaves and dimensional bunching of the grapes. The band and decorative elements demonstrate a cast construction style typical of late 20th-century American West jewelry manufacture. Condition appears fair to good with some visible surface wear and slight dulling of the metal's polish, suggesting regular use. No specific maker's mark is visible from this angle, but the design strongly indicates South Dakota-based origins or influence. The ring's scale is petite, designed as a feminine cocktail or fashion ring.
