Things Finer — Local services in Santa Fe

Although you might have planned a trip to Santa Fe, when you step into the two Things Finer stores in La Fonda Hotel (near the Plaza), you could have easily stepped off the streets of London or Paris into this shop. The incredibly curated selection of gifts, fine jewelry, antiques, art, silver, and curios seems like something you'd find in a fine boutique store you'd come across in one of these international, metropolitan locales.

Love this store! Not only will you find unique treasures here, but the customer service is amazing! I stopped in the store and saw a bag that I loved but did not purchase.

I am so appreciative of the extra mile they took to make this customer VERY HAPPY!! Thanks again,...
