Pandora's Home


Pandora's in the San Busco Market CenterPandora’s was founded at the turn of the millennium, in Santa Fe by two local women. The idea was to deal in functional art, the art of life––what you live in, sleep in and wrap around your shoulders on a chilly day. Ten years later, we continue to draw inspiration from this artistically driven community. Our shop is located in Sanbusco Center, an old warehouse a few blocks from the historic downtown plaza. We feature textiles developed by New Mexican artists as well as artisan communities from around the world. We love to see creations from strange lands interwoven with the native traditions of Indian, Hispanic and Anglo New Mexico.

It is our conviction that globalization needn't always be a homogenizing force. With a bit of trust and inspiration it may be harnessed into something new and beautiful. Our exquisite wares from around the world are a testament to Pandora's philosophy. We invite you to share in our vision and enjoy the fruits of a small-scale, culturally respectful form of trade and development.

Our products are divided into three categories which reflect the development of our shop over the past 10 years. Our Featured Designers offer conventional western bedding and bath products of the highest quality and sophistication. Our World Collection, is an eclectic and visually stunning assortment of pieces representing five continents. Our Artisans and Coops represent our current focus on developing long-term, sustainable relationships with artisans and communities in the US and abroad.
