I have been going to Chimayo del Norte since 2005. Hands-down, it is my favorite gallery in New Mexico. Gabe, Alicia, and all of their people who have worked there over these years have always offered personable and knowledgeable information and advice. I have bought rugs, pottery, and jewelry from them. I truly believe that Chimayo has the best prices on rugs in the south west. I have sent friends to them to get appraisals. I stop in to say hello every time I’m in town. If you are ever in the area you must drop in!

I love this place. The owners grew up in the business, and they carry authentic Native American jewelry, pottery, and rugs, as well as artwork from some of the best painters in the southwest. They have restored and expanded into the old adobe building which has a museum-like quality.Don't go there looking for souvenirs. Shop at the Chimayo Trading Post knowing that they carry the best of the southwest.

Very worth the short drive down from central Taos!!!We loved the regional artworks curated by these experts. Beautiful paintings, pottery and basketry that we intend to add to our home. Found some new (to us) favorite artists. Gallerist Rae was an extremely knowledgeable host sharing the details and back stories of the pieces.

Simply stated. This is the best art gallery in Taos. You have to visit to know it. We have purchased several items. An artist we had looked for, for years, they had her work. Of course we purchased. We go back yearly on our way to the Santa Fe opera.

By far our favorite gallery in Taos. Great gallery in an interesting historic building. Old collections that come into inventory make the gallery particularly interesting with a mix of older and contemporary items. Quality products at fair prices. Don't miss Gabe's amazing jewelry work. The owners are knowledgeable, interesting, and amazing people. Well worth your time to visit, especially if you enjoy history.

We've been stopping at Chimayo Trading Del Norte when we're in the Taos area for years now and it's always worthwhile. They have a big collection of very good and interesting art and also very nice jewelry. The people are very knowledgeable about the artists and local history, and friendly and helpful as well.

We have purchased Gabriel's turquoise bracelet, a beautiful painting, a magnificent Tec Nos Pos rug and many wonderful pottery pieces from Chimayo over the years. Chimayo is excellent in all respects - selection, quality, price for the value and service. I could not recommend them more highly.

The first time we stopped into Chimayo Trading was purely by accident; now we make it a point to visit any time we are in the area. The owners are incredibly knowledgeable and are clearly supportive of the artists they represent, who are numerous. There are many wonderful pieces of art here, for almost any budget. May Chimayo Trading celebrate many more years of business!

We have found the Chimayo Trading Del Norte has been an excellent and reliable place to buy art of the finest quality. I have known the family who owns this for many years, and have nothing but the best to say about the owners and the various forms of art.

This is one of my favorite galleries because the selection is so fabulous, the setting so warm and inviting, and the people responsive, knowledgeable and helpful. I used to patronize the original Chimayo Trading in Chimayo and appreciated John's history, sense of humor and incredible perspective. Gabe and his wife have carried that forth and this is a place NOT to miss!!!

Gabe, the owner is a generational trader of incredible Southwest art, Navajo Rugs, Pueblo Pottery and artifacts. I have purchased several pieces of pottery, rugs, and art. Very impressed with their knowledge and backgrounds.

Gorgeous art in a setting of historic significance. The art in view spans hundred of years, and the knowledgeable caretakers will help you find the perfect piece/s to enhance your life. A place to linger over and return to. A real treasure trove.

I visit the beautiful and informative website regularly. My wife and I bought pottery from John when the trading post was in Chimayo. This Thanksgiving we plan to visit Chimayo Trading. In the past I bought, traded and donated weavings with a number of trading posts and museums.

My favorite gallery for art, jewelry, and rugs. I love learning about their artists thru their newsletters. Near our favorite restaurant Ranchos Plaza Grill, so you can shop and dine.

Gabriel and his family are wonderful to work with, the quality of their offerings is very high and authentic. Definitely worth the short drive from the square, make it a lunch next door and visit the church as well. An annual visit when we vacation nearby.

A beautiful array of jewelry is offered here. I bought a pair of Navajo pearl earrings here that I thought were quite affordable. I was impressed with the customer service I received by co-owner Alicia. She spent a lot of time with me helping to determine which pair of earrings were perfect for me. I am so pleased with my purchase. In addition to a ton of jewelry, Chimayo Trading also carries native pottery and baskets. I know I will be returning.
