@patbz. You forgot to post a photo of what you bought.  I want to see it!  Another Alex Sanchez piece perhaps?  Who are the two young people?

[patbz]

The couple is our older son and his wife Leah (they live in Rio Rancho).  I didn't buy anything (as usual it's pricey) but I got a Casuse naja at CP (70% off how could I not!).

At least you didn't go home empty-handed.

I bet it's killing Carolyn Pollack to be in West Chester instead of Santa Fe during Indian Market.  One year Bill bought her a piece of jewelry there.  I'd surely liked to have seen it.

She was wearing it when I met her at her store four years ago.  As I recall it was 14k and sort of an interpretation of a squash blossom.  She got it at the gala auction and I got the idea that was around 30k (and a really good buy at that price).

Love Alex Sanchez and would also love to get to the Santa Fe market.  I live in Phoenix and to the Heard Museum Annual Fair.   I have pieces from Jimmy Harrison and this year"discovered" Lonn Parker who does beautiful work.  By the time Imgot to Alex Sanchez my budget was blown but definitely next year's show

@Jannyg.  If you shop online, Alex's work can be had all year around.  I've managed to accumulate a nice collection.  Just google his name.
