After not coming to Taos for almost 10 years, some of the shops appeared and went. Not sure if this…read morejewelry store existed back then; I sure was happy to stumble upon it (it's kind of hard to miss as it's located in the center of shopping district in the charming town of Taos). I had been looking for a pair of silver earrings for a while and the moment I stepped in to this shop, I knew I would walk away with something I had been yearning for. The store is a good size. To the left is what's made locally in Taos. And to the right, all everything else (at least that is what the lady upfront who was manning the shop's register said. By the way, she was welcoming and courteous.) I couldn't help telling her that this was by far the best jewelry shop I had stepped into in Taos to which she proudly agreed with. Her confidence in what the shop carries and sells was manifested in her reply. Everything is beautifully placed inside the glass showcase on both sides. The store has done an excellent job by displaying the pieces in the most orderly way as possible. I quickly glanced at the left side first. I then proceeded to where the lady was standing (the right side). And then a pair of silver Navajo earrings caught my attention. I didn't know they were Navajo until the kind lady told me so. The earrings were exactly the right size (I was looking for something small/smaller.) I asked the lady to take them out of the glass case so I could take a closer look. She, of course, generously allowed me to put them on my ears. At that moment, I knew they were it!! And to my surprise, the price was barely $30+? Really? These non-machine-made pieces are only that much? No more wasting of my time so I quickly transacted to purchase them. A little solo getaway to Taos led me to these beautiful earrings was a treat. If you are in Taos and are looking for beautiful and quality pieces of jewelry, waste no time and go here. You are guaranteed to find what you are looking for.

Housed in one of the coolest buildings in 'Seco (Since I overheard a local's cell phone…read moreconversation, apparently, this is what the locals call this miniscule but really cool-looking town). This store is the anchor of this small town of shops and local businesses located in central NM. I think 'Seco has one small bar/restaurant - but don't quote me on this. The Mercantile is an interesting place that carries a moderate amount of antiques, collectibles, a few gifts - most with a New Mexico or 'ecclectic' bend to them. All in all, I found it an interesting place to poke around and spend about 15 minutes - but my 11-and 8-year olds were quickly bored much more quickly. So when you are in 'Seco, be sure to check out the Mercantile, Holmes!
