The woman who runs the store offered a lot of information about the different things that she had, but it would have been helpful if there was more information around to explain the different things in the shop. The different things were very eclectic, so it was fun to look around. We didn't end up leaving with anything this time, and I'm not sure we'd be back, but it's worth popping in if you're in town.

Great little Antique Store | Art Gallery. Lots of unique wood and metal art pieces. I spotted the…read moreElephant and Kudu art pieces from the street and my interest was immediately piqued. It turns out the pieces are fabricated from scrap metal from cars. I debated between the two, but fairly quickly decided to buy both. Returning the next day, I had the opportunity to speak with the owner, Cam, and she was great! I also picked up two more pieces, the Water Buffalo and Wildebeest ... all that's left are the Springbok and Sable. Visiting this little store is highly recommended if you're visiting or just passing through Taos.

We visit at least once on every trip and the staff (and we've dealt with three separate employees/managers) are always friendly and accommodating.

Our favorite artist which Chimayo Trading Del Norte represents has to be Martha Appleleaf!

In another life, 78-year old Dr. Faurie was a PhD in earth science and a French teacher. Now he…read moreruns the most amazing antiques + curiosities shop I have come across in decades, maybe ever. He purchases each piece individually, only acquires them if they are in perfect condition, and then painstakingly restores each one to its original glory. Dr. Faurie's collection reflects the cultured taste of an old-world French gentleman from Lyon's excitement about the world, with the occasional hint of a tongue-in-cheek randy flair: sprinkled among the delicately carved stone statues and carefully polished silver items are a collection of antique erotic books, Victorian-era nutcrackers shaped like naked legs, and other items that will delight any antiquarian's appreciation of the taboos of yore. This place is a gem, and Dr. Faurie himself a treasure. His discomfort with technology means the merchandise is not online, so the entirety of his shop is an untapped reservoir of amazing items, and it is not entirely clear how long it will persist whenever his own efforts cease. It doesn't get any better than this. Come and see it now, while you still can, but just understand that his insurance does not allow visitors to photograph his amazing items for fear of attracting future theft.

The owners are delightful and willing to deal, and they are well informed and like to talk about their treasures. What I did buy--a beautiful page in hand-detailed Arabic script with decorative multicolor lettering. I found out later it was a page of the Koran--but it was a gift for my daughter who picked it out herself and it was inexpensive, and beautiful. She keeps it, but is afraid to put it out lest it offend someone. What I did not buy-- A copy of a Munzer map of northern Europe, taken from the Nuremberg Chronicles, circa 1493, one of the earliest maps of Europe. It was completely fascinating and a bargain, but it was the fall my first daughter was going to college and in that perspective seemed much more expensive. I couldn't get it out of my mind and called back, but it was sold. I missed an opportunity, but this shop is a place full of ancient and old treasures and wonders for anyone who goes in.

Awesome stuff to peruse, a lot of prints from all over the world, through a long list of years. There were maps dating back to the mid-1800s and I'm sure you could find more if you looked. Lots of prints on all sorts of subjects.
