Business InformationHistory/background
John & Estell Hartman have been in the Jewelry manufacturing business since the late 60's, specializing in Turquoise jewelry. Dillon Hartman has since become partners in the family business, and with his partnership came the turquoise mines and obsession with stones. We have been highly involved in creating fine pieces together since 2000 & Dillon is the next generation owner of Durango Silver Co.
In 1975, John & Estell Hartman purchased our property just west of Durango Colorado on the Hwy leading towards Mesa Verde National Park. John, and a friend built a large log, lodge type, which was soon to become our Trading Post. We opened in 1976 dealing in antique firearms, antique Indian items, western memorabilia and jewelry. We have had a brisk business here in Durango since.
If you come to Durango, make certain you plan on visiting our Trading Company, it has become one of the most historic trading companies in the Four Corners region.
