Her store is a living example of her knowledge filled with an eclectic array of jewelry, art, clothing, local creations and hidden gems. I have known Ruth and shopped in MM for almost 30 years.

I loved the alum art earrings, so light on my ears, attractive and reasonably priced. Must get me more. I love my saguaro cactus cutting board, it is functional and beautiful and created by Patricia W, I want another one. There is loads of Southwest jewelry, tchotchkes and different art. Unfortunately we were on a time crunch so I chose and bought quickly but looking forward to another visit in the future. Madrid is Mostly awesome.

Silver Day Trading Company closed in May 2018. A new gallery shop - Calliope, has taken its place.read more

This shop alone is reason enough to make the trip to Madrid. The jewelry (natural turquoises from…read morevarious mines; coral; silver; some vintage, some contemporary) is just a part of this store's appeal. For me, the main attraction is the selection of unpolished rocks and geodes- jade, amethyst, gem-grade turquoise, kyanite, quartz, and more, including tiny coral branches that you pay for by the ounce. Dayton, the owner, is super friendly and informative. I look forward to seeing what's new here every time I come to Madrid.

June 4, 2023 - Casa Grande Trading Post, (Cerillos, NM) We…read morestopped in here on a Sunday afternoon after a reconnaissance mission to check out the Cerillos Hills State Park (which does not have a Yelp presence). Looks like there are some good hiking and mountain bike trails there. There is also an outfitter nearby where they do guided horseback rides. We had been here a couple years ago after having lunch at the Black Bird Cafe in town, a good spot for burgers and a beer. The trading post has lots of turquoise and copper related rocks and more glass pin electric wire insulators than you could ever imagine. Glass pin insulators were used to insulate electric line and telegraph line wires from support structures that hold them off the ground. The period from 1875 to 1930 might generally be thought of as the "heyday" of the glass insulator. Hundreds of millions of these glass "bells" were produced during this time. Thay also have a small animal pen at the Trading Post that has a llama, goats, and various birds. You can buy feed in the store for $4 to feed to the animals. There is a viewing area just outside the Trading Post where you can check out the nearby riverbed an a few rock formations in the distance.
