I came here last spring hoping to purchase a Chimayo vest, somewhat of a family tradition here in Northern New Mexico. I came to this shop because of it being open when others were not and I'm glad I did! Mr. Irvin Trujillo showed us his beautiful artwork which is on display throughout the store, measured me, and helped to make sure the design was just what I wanted. My custom vest was completed quickly, was quite affordable, and I couldn't be happier! Thank you Mr. Trujillo!

I bought a beautiful woven purse directly from the weaver and some pretty earrings. This store is affordable and interesting-the weavers weave right there with their big looms!

From jewelry to peppers, this place has it all. Very friendly staff and it's on the way to see the Church at Chimayo. Reasonable prices and huge selection of seasonings. Worth the stop.

On a day out of Santa Fe we went through Chimayo to seek out the weaving shops there. Ortega's is a real gem, service very friendly and patient and a huge selection of rugs, blankets, and all sorts of accessories. Prices are fair, better than in ABQ or SF we thought. We bought a beautiful rug, had it shipped to our home in MD and a week later are enjoying it! Even IF you don't want to purchase anything this is a great stop!
