Retail options on Taos Plaza consist mostly of T-shirt emporiums and souvenir shops that are easily bypassed, though a few stores carry quality Native American artifacts and jewelry. The more distinctive galleries and boutiques begin barely a block north on Bent Street, including the John Dunn House Shops, and extend just east on Kit Carson Road (U.S. 64). You'll find another notable cluster of galleries and shops, along with a few good restaurants, up north in Arroyo Seco.
This locally owned pottery store features expertly designed glazed plates, bowls, cups, vases, pitchers, and more. Handmade and fired in a wood kiln, each piece is a work of art, making this a great place to shop for gifts that are both useful and beautifully one-of-a-kind.
