Waci-ci Trading Company

Native-made beadwork, jewelry, and regalia anchor the inventory at Waci’-ci Trading Company in Ignacio. Family-owned for more than 35 years, this Southwestern Colorado shop sits on the Southern Ute Reservation, serving as a hub for authentic Indigenous art and practical goods. Shoppers find handcrafted pieces from Navajo, Southern Ute, and other tribal artists alongside traditional healing supplies like smudge sticks and herbs.

The store balances cultural heritage with rugged utility. Pendleton Woolen Mills blankets, bags, and accessories share shelves with work apparel from Carhartt, Red Wing, Georgia, Rocky, Dan Post, and Wrangler. Fire-resistant clothing, high-visibility gear, and camouflage options cater to ranchers, oil field workers, mechanics, and everyday wearers. Craft supplies for beading, leatherwork, and tools are available for artisans.

Home and gift items complete the collection. Elk coaster sets, mouse rugs inspired by Arizona’s Papago Park, and naturally shed moose antler jewelry offer unique decor. The shop also stocks bath and body products, children's items, and textiles. Located 25 miles southeast of Durango in the Four Corners region, Waci’-ci Trading Company remains a trusted destination for meaningful, durable goods that honor tradition and support Native artisans.
