Michael Ettema is an incredibly knowledgeable and wonderfully personable expert in his field. In other words, a consummate professional. And one whose judgment we value very highly.

Michael was a wonderful discovery, teaching us about the great Indian Potters, their techniques and history. His customer service and wise counsel are superb and he is a truly knowledgeable professional who really cares about his clients.

Ann and I would never consider a purchase of Indian pottery, a blanket, or old jewelry in Santa Fe without having Michael look at it and give us his recommendations and approval.

I wanted to let you know that the pottery arrived safely at the museum. I enjoyed doing business with you. You are a true professional! Thank you again.

In my dealings with Michael Ettema over the past few years, I have always found him to be very helpful, extremely knowledgeable and – perhaps most important – an honest and genuinely nice guy.

Michael did a great job of completing the appraisal of the painting. He was very professional, the cost for the work was very fair, and his responsiveness was always timely. I highly recommend Michael when you are looking for someone to do this type of work.
