On a recent trip to Santa Fe, we had the pleasure of visiting this fabulous store. It's actually…read moremore like a museum than a store, but fortunately you can purchase the items on sale. I found a beautiful piece of natural aquamarine with black tourmaline running through it from Namibia - it's stunning and was so excited to add it to my collection. The owner was lovely! Such a kind man who spent lots of time with us explaining about the different minerals and fossils and where they were found. My friend said this was her favorite store that we went to for our entire trip to Santa Fe. Do yourself a favor and definitely check it out when you're in town. It's so cool!!!

I was on a mission to find New Mexican-made sterling silver beads for a friend. Glorianna's was my…read morefirst stop in Santa Fe and I'm glad of it. As other reviewers have said, it's a small shop packed to the gills with beads and related items. Much of the stock is indeed behind glass so you have to ask for assistance. That makes the store less fun for the casual browser or if you want to handle things before buying. However, I think all the glass cases are understandable as much of their stock is vintage and/or valuable. The one staff person there was able to help me find what I wanted, even showing me a couple of different options. I bought a number of beads and went away happy.

The selection and quality are unrivaled, and the prices are very fair. I have made jewelry for almost 20 years, and Gloriana's has the best inventory I have ever seen! It is so rare these days to be able to go and select materials for yourself, as opposed to having to order online and hope for the best (and frequently be disappointed). The knowledge of the owner is impressive, and it was a joy being there. I highly recommend you visit and experience for yourself!

The wood looked aged and there is an almost unbelievable "established 1603" sign right on front. It's jam packed inside with Native-American arts and crafts. Ask staff for the history and provenance of different pieces since so much of it is actually Native American made. We loved our experience here and the most interesting part was the trapdoor they showed us that led to a sealed up underground tunnel. Najavo Pottery was amazing but its displayed on shelves in the middle of a walkway so if you have a large backpack or bag be careful where you are walking. Along the rafters on the roof there are weaved baskets that I loved and would have loved to take home but they were too large to carry onto the plane.

I stumbled across the Crystal Dragon that had, by far and away, the best selection of unique and original gemstone jewelry and, important to me, a substantial selection of turquoise varieties from several mines.

When my ring arrived via USPS just a few weeks later, I was blown away! It was EXACTLY what I wanted and fit perfectly. I love my one-of-a kind creation!
