One of the best and most complete gift shop we found in Oaxaca. They have lots of handmade and…read morelocally produced art and a very helpful staff. Located near the Zocolo just about all the things you see in local shops are here, but so much more. And there is such a variety within each category. The wood carved and beautifully decorated "animals" comprise a zoo of selections. All nicely done and priced reasonably. Clothing, especially blouses, ponchos and dresses, are plentiful. Jewelry, carvings, statuary, pottery, leather stationary holders, papers and paper decorations are part of the inventory. Prices are slightly more than one will find in the smaller shops, but selection and quality are the rule here. If you are looking for something special or different, ask the staff, all of whom speak English which makes selection and buying easier and more convenient. And best of all, the artists are supported through this venue which encourages more art and maintains some of the art that is fading out due to mechanization. Great place to shop in Oaxaca City.

This was probably the coolest shop we went to in all of Oaxaca. It's a huge space with lots of…read moredifferent spots, sort of a consignment type set-up. There's every kind of Oaxacan product you can think of, from black pottery to traditional jewelry, alebrijes, leather goods, chocolate, tons of textiles and more. What I liked about this place though, is that each stand is a different artisan from somewhere in the region, and though the goods seemed to be of a higher quality than I found other places, the prices were really reasonable. I met the artist of a piece of pottery I bought for my mom, and spoke to someone else that made silver for another booth. A lot of the things we saw in the street and at the mercado really seemed to be mass produced, and That was definitely not the case here. I hope that when I made purchases here they were being truthful and the money truly went to the communities where the products came from, because if that's the case, I'm really glad.

Only a few weeks ago I found about this place, the owners of Naranja Dulce introduced me to the…read moreowner Francisco & his brother David. They do most of the jewelry, which is awesome plus if you want custom made pieces this is the place to go. I walked by yesterday with my mom, only to find out she got a pair of earrings custom made for me a couple years ago in this exact place with Francisco. Also if you have some precious stones he can put them in a bracelet, pendant, etc. He also sells mexican old style toys, clothes, purses and some decorations, all hand made by Oaxacan artisans.

This is my favorite kids store EVER. These clothes are the kinds of clothes you see hipster kids on…read moreInstagram wearing, with Mexican flavor. I wish she had an online store so everyone could buy these incredibly sweet and well-made kids clothes. Oh well, another excuse to go to Oaxaca. Her dresses are timeless and made from a hodgepodge of fabrics. Everything is one-of-a-kind. The store is inspiring with great displays. Great taste all the way.
