I found this trading company to have many authentic jewelry pieces, pottery, blankets and more. However, the sales person that worked with me was new and really couldn't answer too many of my questions and she did not go seek the information from anyone else either. Other customer she helped they ask questions same thing she said she really didn't know, but yet she didn't seek advice from any of the other workers. So if you're new to this stuff have questions and the sales person cannot answer them strongly suggest that you ask them to go get the information or get a different sales person. Other than that, I would recommend this business. read more

Attentive and courteous service and an amazing selection of merchandise and beautiful jewelry from the local artists. This place has been in business for a very long time. Worth visiting. read more

I always stop here when I visit Albuquerque. I buy all my Native American jewelry here. When I compare what I buy with other places, I truly get a bargain. Friendly staff. Great pottery. They deal directly with the artists. Best prices in Albuquerque. Go Dodgers (private joke). read more

This place has been around for a long time. If you are looking for Native American art and jewlery this is a great place to shop. They have a large inventory of different items. read more

They double the price then offer 1/2 off of select items . No thank you . I bought almost the exact same Katrina doll(I believe the amuse manufacture ) for 600 at another store instead of the asking 1200 price here read more

I visited the Palms Trading Company based on word-of-mouth from locals and I was not disappointed. The prices were fair and the people working there very knowledgeable and didn't try to haggle and was able to assist me on my purchase. More importantly, I got the vibe that this wasn't a part of town that tourists frequent. I highly recommend this shop and specifically for jewelry. read more

A few days ago, I was sorting through my closet and ran across some Southwestern mementos from the days that I lived in Los Alamos. I fondly remember my Saturday shopping trips into Albuquerque in general and at the State Fair grounds flea market and the Palms Trading Company in particular. The Palms has been around for a long time and their selection, service, and prices have been one of the reasons that I keep returning to the Land of Enchantment. Gayle was less impressed with my turquoise treasures, especially the bolo tie. She eventually wore me down and prevailed on me to put it away before I dared to wear it in public. She also implied that Universe ending paradoxes would occur if I didn't see it her way. I'd prefer to think that I'm ahead of the fashion curve and that someday my "hip" style will be properly recognized as I proudly get my "Bolo On". read more

I needed several New Mexico Pueblo pottery as gifts to take with me on a business trip. The staff was unbelievable helpful and patient with me. The item selection in store is incredible. There are items at all price points. I would highly recommend shopping here if you want original Pueblo pottery. read more

This store has been on my "must go" list for months I finally made it here today and was pleasantly surprised. It is now my favorite place to go for Indian jewelry. While their display area is smaller, their prices are lower than the store I've been frequenting. They also have Talavera Suns that are already beckoning me back. This is the store I will go to first the next time company is in town and ready to shop. It's definitely worth your time and its proximity to Old Town is another plus read more

I came here face on a suggestion from a yelper and I'm really glad that I came. The selection here is huge! They not only have jewelry but other Native American art and artifacts. A lot of the jewelry is automatically 50% off of the price that smart which makes you feel like you're getting a much better deal. The staff here is very friendly and helpful. I came in looking to purchase some turquoise earrings as gifts for relatives and also to look at jewelry pieces for myself. The staff was very patient with me as I pulled out different trays to see their different items. I ultimately decided on a Creek turquoise pendant and bracelet. I love my pieces and can't wait to wear them! I plan on returning so that I can make additional purchases. read more

Great selection, great customer service. AND great prices! If you are in town for a short stay, this is a must stop for all Native American art work. We originally found this gem of a store 25 years ago, and today it is just as wonderful! read more

Have always loved this store and still do! Amazing product, great prices. Also everyone was wearing masks and the store is large enough that people can distance. Highly recommend to get some great items. read more

Don't bother trying to shop here. Went the shop door was locked (which is understandable) HOWEVER the clerk made eye contact with me repeatedly and just flat out ignored me. I tried to call which also went ignored. So instead of getting to shop I left without ever getting to see anything. Very disappointed given the high reviews of this jewelry shop. read more

I recently purchased some earrings from Palms and just wanted to say that I am very pleased. I try to get to the shop every time I'm in Albuquerque, but this time there was an advertised discount for online purchases to I took advantage of the sale. I received my earrings within a few days. My purchase was neatly wrapped and included a very nice letter of thanks from the owner and letter of authentication. I would recommend a visit to the store in person if you are ever in Albuquerque, but it is a nice option to shop online too! read more

The people are pretty friendly. Their selection is good, but not amazing. Their prices are fair. Everything is appropriately priced. There is a room for jewelry, a room for pottery, and a room for handmade arrows and bows and such. All in all this store is definitely worth checking out! read more

The very best place to buy southwestern anything! Whether you love Native American jewelry, pottery, sand paintings, kachinas or any other type of Native American art, this is the place to go because the prices are very reasonable, and you're buying authenticity as well. The store is divided up in two parts. The first part, where you enter, is the jewelry section where jewelry for both men and women are sold, ceramic tiles, books and miscellaneous Native American art. Sand paintings and kachinas are also found in this room. The second room is full of pottery from each of the tribes. My favorite tribe pottery has always been Laguna, but you can find Zuni, Hopi and others if that is your preference. If you're traveling, they will even double-box your piece of pottery for a small fee... which I highly recommend you do. You can also get vintage pottery there, but that's expensive. The price range in the store is from inexpensive to the very expensive. No matter if you're paying a few dollars or a 'gazillion' dollars for an item, always be rest assured you are getting an authentic piece of Native American art. (I really miss this store by the way. I would take family and friends to this store because I knew their wares were trustworthy. One of these days, I want to take a trip back to Albuquerque just to revisit my favorite place to shop for Native American artwork and jewelry.) PS: I just realized I wrote this review on April Fool's Day, but I'm really not fooling on this at all! read more

I have family in the ABQ (pops is from here) and this is the pretty much the only place we go to purchase southwestern goods. My parents have jewelry and sand paintings and vases that they purchased here 25+ years ago that are still so beautiful and this is place that I go when in town, now that I am starting my own collection. The last few times I have been in store (including 4th of july) there have been PLENTY of sales people to show me merchandise and have been extremely attentive, which is much appreciated. I enjoy the relationship they have with the artists and the staff can tell you a bit about who made each piece in store and what other merchandise an artist has made. Price range varies from inexpensive (some children's earrings, blankets made in mexico, smaller sand paintings and fetishes) to moderate (most jewelry here is better priced than elsewhere and they have a great selection of navajo style, inlay style, needle point, and also a decent priced section of vintage jewelry) to really expensive (the rugs and some of the vases I have been eyeing are priced at over 1000$) but the price really depends on what you are looking for. You CAN feel good about knowing that your purchase is vetted and it is real Native American goods, handmade and hand crafted, some of the product is truly art and worthy of the price tag. I will definitely pop in and say hi and make a purchase the next time I am in town, I can spend hours at this place looking at everything they have to offer. read more

I have been dealing with the Palms for more then 30 yrs. and have never been disappointed in the curtisy. service , quality or prices. I've had the opportunity to also watch this very special trading company grow to meet the needs of residents and visitors alike, whether I was living in Wisconsin, Vermont, California, New Mexico or Oregon. And now at 72, I still can rely on the finest from Guy and his crew! S.R. Milton Freewater, OR read more

Palms is usually worth a pop in to see what they have. Sometimes they have a decent selection of pawn. They tend to not carry the best pieces from well-known artists though. Decent place to buy average quality jewelry and/or gifts. read more

I have been here once before and bought a few pieces of jewelry that are very unique. So when Albuquerque is was a definite stop. This time I took in a few pieces that were my Grandmother's (over 60 years old) for repair. Adrian LaJeunesses fixed them in minutes. He gave me ideas to convert watch ends to earrings. His customer was over the top for myself and I watched him do the same for others. I'll definitely be back next time in Albuquerque. Thanks Adrian read more

Been a customer for years, this is the place to go in Albuquerque for gifts without paying Old Town prices.

The have a large selection but the prices are very expensive for most of their items. Not all the items are local. Some are from Mexico and Pakistan. read more

Fantastic service. They have so much pretty jewelry, and they let me leave things on the display counter while I decided on different pieces. The sales people were super patient and appeared to be honest. They would tell me what stones were genuine and which ones were not. Their selection is huge. One suggestion would be for them to change out the glass in their display cases. The jewelry looks kind of mediocre in the cases but sparkly and pretty when they pull the items out to look at. read more

I've been buying there for years. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. They have guaranteed authentic Native American pieces. Palms Trading is the first place I visit when I arrive in New Mexico! I love this place! read more

Moccasins was the name of our game. We ended up walking out with multiple pairs for multiple people. Life is too short not to wear comfortable shoes. Inside there are lots of Native American Southwestern items. Including: Dream catchers, Reiki like pottery, Blankets, Pottery, Kachina like dolls, Jewelry, some cooking items, and artwork. Just to name a few. Lots of people to help you out, and ample parking. As the sign says they don't haggle so unless they are having a sale you won't get much wiggle room on prices. read more

Great place to shop for authentic Native American jewelry. I had a friend visit from out of state. We stopped by Palms before we headed up to Santa Fe. After 2 hours, she made some great purchases. She was happy we went there first. read more

BEST PLACE TO BUY NATIVE AMERICAN JEWELRY!!!! GO HERE FIRST!!! My husband and I loved this shop! The best we experienced in New Mexico! The selection was immense. The prices were outrageous. And the shop keepers were WONDERFUL, showing us piece after piece, without tiring. The quality of the merchandise was outstanding. We were in shock, and sorry that we had not found this shop first. They were specific about the prices, it was a clear cut formula, no discounting arbitrarily at discretion of shop owner. They gave me precise listing and description of items purchased, professional and business like. I was purchasing jewelry and they provided all jewelry with bios of artists. All work was signed and Native made. Nothing from foreign countries masquerading as Native American. We will definitely be back. Wonderful experience. I left with, among many other things, an incredible beaded necklace from Rosita Singer which my husband bought me for our anniversary. Absolutely breathtaking, and one of a kind. read more

I bought some really great jewelry from Palms Trading company. The prices were excellent and the service was impeccable. :-)

Incredibly overpriced and touristy. I would not advise buying anything here. I found similar or better products everywhere else in New Mexico for significantly cheaper. Don't spend $2000 on a bowl, when you can get a hand made one elsewhere for $200z read more

Palms has an excellent selection of Southwestern Jewelry and other accessories. What impressed me most, however, is that I recently purchased a belt buckle and two stones fell out. I shipped the buckle back with a note requesting them to please call me with any applicable repair charges. Not only were there no charges, they shipped it back to me in New York with no shipping costs to me. I truly appreciate their great customer service and I will shop at Palms the next time I am in New Mexico! read more

I'm from out of town but frequent Albuquerque often. Palms Trading Is always a stop for me. Beautiful new and old jewely, pottery, fetishes, baskets, rugs. And the best part the smiles that greet you. Oh and the prices are the the best! Thank you! read more

So we went there twice ... the second time i broke down and bought a heavy silver "squash blossom" approximation that went on a heavy silver chain my mother had given me from Greece. ... have not been able to take it off since i've been back .... really love it and it reminds me of good things including my wonderful visit in New Mexico ... thanks everybody! read more
