Shopping at Two Graces Volume 1
Perhaps if I added items from the shop every day to this blog I might finish before the end of the year, we'll see what happens. At some point I'll have to start listing things on the dreaded auction site, but for now readers of this blog will have a chance to shop Two Graces without having to physically be here. Descriptions, sizes and pricing will be below or between the items.

The lady I purchased these from needs some sincere encouragement, I hope to do that by selling out of them ASAP! (currently 3 of these are left, 1/13/11) Sorry Sold Out.
Vintage Tin Nicho Boxes, painted yellow ages ago by their former Taos owner, although traditional to have pictures of Saints in them these images have been replaced, the one on the right is missing it's top, probably a cross cut off out of frustration with a prayer not coming to fruition. Very typical, years ago my Mom threw a Saint Statue down the cellar steps smashing it to bits in a moment of anger over the passing of her Mom. These may or may not be from New Mexico, but were in a Taos home for many years, the one on the left w/Santo Nino is priced at SOLD and the one missing the top piece with the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Miracle is SOLD
The following assortment of Tin Frames are made in Mexico, and had been designed, created and imported by a Taos resident who had a business 20 years ago here selling these to shops in Taos & Santa Fe. I've bought out his stock on these so they are very limited availability. Although not quite Vintage they are unique and have a better quality to them than what is found today.

Thus begins the sampling of items from the shop Two Graces, although this sampling is tending to lean towards religious oriented items we carry a wide variety of items reflecting the curios of Taos & the Southwest. Shipping fees will always be minimal we do not intend to make a profit on shipping, of course with shipping there is then no Tax charged unless you are within the state of New Mexico in which case please come by and visit soon.
