The Maisel's Collection

In 1939, Maurice Maisel built a trading post on Route 66 in downtown Albuquerque. He hired John Gaw Meem, the architect who defined Pueblo Revival, and told him he was "not content with the usual Indian thing." Olive Rush designed the murals across the facade, painted by young artists including Pablita Velarde, Ben Quintana, Harrison Begay, and Pop Chalee, all of whom went on to serious careers. By the 1940s Maisel's was the largest trading post on Route 66.

The store closed after Maurice Maisel died in the 1960s. The building is on the National Register of Historic Places.

These charms came off that counter. They are sterling silver, they are still attached to the original cards they were hung on, and not one of them has ever been worn. There is one of most of them, and when they are gone I have no way to get more.

Free shipping over $75. Any three charms, 15% off.
