Welcome to New Mexico Gems

We carry items traditional to New Mexico, the Land of Enchantment: We feature Native American made jewelry and other Native American made items, also Navajo sand paintings, and natural forms of jewelry for men, women, and children. Chile pepper ristras when in season are a favorite, and soon photography prints of the great southwest region. New Mexico has a rich culture all its own. We, born and raised locals, want to bring you a bit of its history and culture into your homes. Enjoy!

We have been on the internet as New Mexico Gems since 2010 operating in New Mexico.
