Visiting Santa Fe, NM this week, and after an event this evening, we stopped by Susan's Christmas…read moreShop. Just a hole in the wall next to the famous restaurant The Shed... a small shop, but wall to wall, floor to ceiling everything Christmas, year-round! Puts a smile on your face just walking through the door! Kristy was working in the store this evening, and what a pleasure to deal with. We chatted about all kinds of things, and she hunted for 15 minutes to find a companion bunny for the one we bought (Easter, not Christmas! LOL). She even called to the owner to see if an extra one might be stashed somewhere that she didn't know about! She kindly wrapped several items we were carrying (not from the store) so it would be easier for us to carry. What a fun 30 minutes! We'll definitely follow-up with the store to get a 2nd bunny! Thanks Kristy! You were such a delight!

I love this place because:…read more - One of the few places near the Plaza open until 7 PM, so I can shop after work. - Amazing, diverse selection of the finest vintage Native American jewelry and the most interesting and innovative contemporary artists. - Superb customer service. There is always a friendly, helpful staff member available. They are patient and never make me feel pressured. They treat everyone the same. I'm not a "high roller," but they go out of their way to make me feel welcomed. - Honest prices. They treat their regular customers very well and will work with me to find something within my budget. Their inventory is high quality, meaning nothing in the shop is cheap, but I know I'm getting authentic Native American jewelry and always feel that I'm getting good value. - I actually work in the industry myself and when I don't have what my customers are looking for, I send them here because I know they'll have a good experience.

Here's a polished review you can post:…read more I can't say enough good things about Wind River Trading Company. I purchased a ring there two or three years ago, and recently the center stone came out. I contacted them, and Abe took care of everything. He had the stone replaced, and the ring looks beautiful again. The craftsmanship is excellent, and the customer service is truly outstanding. It's rare to find a jeweler who stands behind their work and treats customers so well long after the purchase. In my opinion, Wind River Trading Company is the best jeweler in Santa Fe. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful jewelry and exceptional service. They truly care about their loyal customers. I can't wait to visit again to see other beautiful pieces.

What gorgeous artwork. My husband and I are visiting Taos from Boston. A friend told us that…read moreChimayó is famous for their woven rugs, and I've wanted one for our bedroom. When we visited Centinela, Emily, the daughter of the owners, was there. She told us all about the rugs, made some suggestions, and told us they could custom make a rug in any colors we wanted. She also told us that even though they are competitors with other weavers in the area, they are all family, and we might find something we liked better at one of those locations. Centinela has absolutely gorgeous rugs, ponchos, vests, hats. Each was a work of art. Emily was delightful and hilariously funny. Crowds gathered around her just to hear what she had to say. Though we did end up purchasing at Trujillo's up the street, a visit to Centinela is definitely worthwhile. Update: We returned to Centinela today, and the owners, Lisa and Irv, were there. I had called earlier because I wanted to have a southwestern woven panel sewn to the back of my denim jacket. I was told to come in. Lisa said they had 15 panels already made, but she couldn't find them. Irv rudely told us to get out if the way while he looked for them. Neither could find the panels, and Lisa thought someone else who worked there might have put them somewhere. We asked her to call that person, but she would not. Today was our last day of vacation in the area, so I'm kind of disappointed. But I also don't want to spend my money with rude people.
