I was directed to Ricardo, who repaired it while I waited. I was thrilled that it could be done so quickly as I had driven from Taos. He did a great job, it was affordable, and it looks like it will last for years. The young lady at the register was so friendly too. I would highly recommend Bella Fine Jewelry. And their jewelry is GORGEOUS! Maybe next time...

Looking for someone to repair your jewelry? Look no further…read more My wife had a broken turquoise cuff bracelet that we took to Ricardo at Bella Fine Jewelry hoping to have it repaired. The bracelet was beyond repair, but Ricardo suggested using the separate pieces to create two pendants. And what a fine job he did! Creative and professional, he is worth the visit.

Ortega's on the Plaza was founded as a physical store front in 1971. But, the Ortega family's roots…read morein buying and selling Southwestern and Native American arts and crafts date back to 1871. It holds the distinction of being the oldest jewelry store operating on Santa Fe's Historic Plaza. The offerings here are expensive, but in my opinion there's no guesswork on the authenticity and quality of what you're purchasing. Anytime I'm in town, I make it a point to come in and drool over the bolo tie designs, most of which I can't (or won't?) afford. Like anything else Southwest-wise, I find that it takes awhile to sort through the massive selections to find the precious few that I then obsess over.

I used to love Ortega's however the last two times I've been in I dropped some serious $.

My soon to be husband went to this shop on the recommendation of a friend for my engagement ring…read more He had no actual diamonds to show him so we went elsewhere. When I decided to change the wedding band to go with my halo ring we went to him again. He recommended a curved band with some smallish diamonds in it. I asked almost joking what am I going to do with my original band that had much smaller diamonds in it. He suggested he mount them to my engagement ring shank. I asked how will that look? He said "beautiful". Sad to say, it did not look beautiful. The diamonds were buried in the shank, the tool marks very visible and to make things worse, the mountings were not equally set as far as depth goes. I went to him to let him know how I felt and he offered to put larger diamonds in it. Said those little diamonds are really hard to do. My question: why did he sell me on the idea? James gave me a price to do bigger diamonds that he said was special. I checked around. It was not. So now I have the original wrecked wedding band, and an engagement ring that now looks somewhat homemade. I feel I gave James who seems like a nice guy, the opportunity to make it right. He did not. And he will not get that opportunity again with me. I had met with another custom jeweler here in Santa Fe (MH). We have planned a very thoughtful design with much time involved to remedy the issues and says that if I am not thrilled, he will remake the rings until I am thrilled. I did want a slight alteration and he was happy to do so.

Very cool. I was looking for a Tshirt, but the rack of belts caught my eye. Nice think leather with some western tooling. And good prices for such stout construction. And many are made by Amish. I usually get a size up so i can wear it with my sidearm. The young lady at the counter said I should try it on as they run a little small. She was right and if she had not said anything I would have been disappointed. I went a size up and got a great belt.

Entering this store brings you into a store seemingly out of place here. It would look more at home in places like Dallas, Houston, Beverly Hills, very upscale.

It was a good experience - but one I expected.

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.
