so the client knows whether the restoration is warranted and will increase the value of the textile or if the restoration is done for personal sentimental value. The restoration I provide is normally not seen because of the very tedious process I use of making my own carded yarn for each area of the rug that needs to be repaired. I can also provide detailed written reports, accompanied with a photograph, on each rug, whether it is restored by me or not. Local references are numerous, including the Santa Fe Indian Market and Spanish Market where I have had the honor of being a weaving judge at both events, as well as a judge for the Fiber Arts Festival at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture. I also teach a one-day Navajo Rug Appreciation class at the Santa Fe Community College, through the Continuing Ed. Department, once a semester.

With a jewelry collection second to none, the Traveler's Market is the ideal place to find a rare antique, a one of a kind contemporary piece and a unique gift.

Each dealer is an expert in his or her specialty, and many have given lectures, provided material & expertise to museums, and worked overseas with co-ops and indigenous people to develop marketable goods. They are happy to offer their expertise to the Traveler's Market visitor, who will find a friendly and fun atmosphere in which to shop.
