Dale Rice, Texas / Santa Fe

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
