Here are just a few unsolicited comments Jackalope has received
"Jackalope captures the spirit of Santa Fe with its vibrant mix of pottery, furniture, and art. The lush green plants are some of the healthiest I’ve seen—like wandering through a hidden garden. And don’t miss Prairie Dog Glass, where you can watch or even try glassblowing yourself under the guidance of talented, funny artists. A colorful, relaxed shopping experience with true New Mexican flair."

The reason I give this 5 stars is that in comparison with other pottery and decor stores, this really stands out in the care they take in their products. The pottery is well taken care of even though it's outdoors. We saw so many chipped, cracked and broken pottery at other places, which was very discouraging. The staff was great here and it was also very organized and orderly. Highly recommend!

"OMG! What an amazing place! So many great local artisan crafts to choose from. We were just passing through on our way home and wanted to get some pots. I wish we had a truck. Loved the solid wood furniture, the native rugs, the mirrors, even the New Mexico chili!"

"Forget Canyon Road, when I go to Santa Fe, I go to the Jackalope. I want to bring a uhaul from NY and buy the whole store."
