FEEDBACK: DELBERT GORDON RING & ALBERT JAKE RING:
OVERALL GRADE: A+
QUALITY: A+
I purchased 1 Delbert Gordon and 1 Albert Jake ring from Plata by mail. Though photographed and described accurately on her website, the turquoise rings were even more beautiful and substantial in person.
STYLE: A+
I wanted my jewelry to make a “statement” and could not be happier with the “WOW” factor of my turquoise rings.
SERVICE: A+
Plata replied to all my emails - over a dozen - quickly and completely. We also spoke by phone for almost 30 minutes and she included moleskin with my purchase to help resize one of the two turquoise rings.
VALUE: A+
I do not want to encourage Plata to increase her prices, but in some ways, I feel like these rings were underpriced. In fairness, that probably just reflects the market value for Native American jewelry. That said, I love - repeat, love - my two turquoise rings and feel lucky to have been able to purchase two heirloom-quality pieces of jewelry from master Navajo silversmiths for less than $2,000.

FEEDBACK: Federico Jimenez Jewelry
The Federico earrings arrived Saturday. I opened the box and was dazzled by the beauty of perfection.
In fact, I just looked at them for several minutes, before I picked them up. Even contemplating getting my wool gloves so that I wouldn’t leave any oils on them,so I just doubled washed my hands!
The bracelet has not come off my wrist since it arrived.
You, with all the special care you have shown me just proves how much you care for your customers. Truely you go above and beyond the call of duty!
I love you so much!!

FEEDBACK: Darryl Becenti Jewelry
I must say THANK YOU SO MUCH for allowing me to collect these rare Darryl Becenti pieces. You went above and beyond to find a way that works for both of us, when I am sure you can easily sell these rare pieces to local collectors. For your immense kindness, there is not enough words to express how grateful I am.
I must also tell you how much I appreciate your super safe and neat packaging. Having frequently bought from US sellers, I have received jewellery with earrings posts bent, turquoise/spiny oysters chipped, jewellery falling out of boxes or completely crushed. When I unpacked your packages, I kept saying "wow". Becauser in my mere 17/18 years of online shopping, this is the first time ever I received packages containing jewellery so neatly and thoughtfully packed with bubble wrap and velvet pouches. Each piece was wrapped so carefully with extra bubble wrap inserted in vulnerable places. This clearly shows that the pieces were packed by someone who is not only truly professionally experienced in handling jewellery, but that person also genuinely cares for and loves the jewellery she sells. Plata, the jewellery you curated are lucky to be in your shop. They are safe in your care until you pack them safely for their new owners.
Plata, It is my absolute honour to get to know you and be able to purchase from you. I look forward to buying from you again, and to visit your store and meet you in person one day when the pandemic dies down. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Best,

FEEDBACK: Mary Tafoya Reversible Necklace
Message: I cannot be happier having purchased this classic piece of Native American art. Mary Tafoya is a National Treasure. Her talent and love for her jewelry is obvious in the necklace I purchased from Plata de Santa Fe. Never a disappointment buying from here.

FEEDBACK: Mary Tafoya necklace
Message: Just wanted you to know the piece arrived yesterday and is a delight to my eye and put a twinkle in my heart! I have been following Mary's wonderful work and knew someday I would find the perfect folk art dove design. You have a wonderful store and have a great personal eye for what you select. I discovered you and Mary through the Santa Fean Magazine before it went out of production. Your detailed and accurate description in the write-up was greatly appreciated. Both the 5 strand necklace and the Dove are a joy to look at. I will be wearing this jewelry whenever I can, even if just to the post office and grocery store during this pandemic. I look forward to an in person visit to your store next Spring if travel and vaccinations become available. In the mean time I am glad I can see your beautiful items on line.
Sincerely,Joan on 8.12.2020

Customers can buy from this unique shop with confidence. Highly recommended.

FEEDBACK: Kim Yubeta Guadalupe Charm Necklace
Message:Oh, Plata! I am still speechless from unboxing the Guadalupe necklace. It is even more lovey than I remembered. And your pictures and thorough listing online did such a great job explaining and detailing this piece of art. I feel like it should be displayed in my home! So dang beautiful! And thank you for curating such a treasure trove of a store (more like a museum or gallery in my opinion)!
