Casa Don Taurino is located in a beautiful Oaxaca-style-architecture building, infront of the Sangre de Cristo Church. If you search for the place in google Maps don't get discouraged by the picture you'll find there since the owners made an awesome job refurbishing the building. Inside you will find exquisite textiles, dyed with natural colors, fine-designed ceramics and the most colorful blown glass of all Mexico.

We had an amazing tour from a member of the family and I learned about the true art of weaving and especially of using natural dyes. I bought a small weaving for my grandsons but I could hot help but splurge for myself- with a gorgous tree of life rendition done by the grandfather Isaac Vasquez. It is such a beautiful thing - I feel honored to own it. This is where you go to see what must be one of the top weavers in the country. I learned a lot and felt so well treated. Gorgeous things to see even if you don't buy.
