Gibson Lighting is a studio specializing in lighting for older homes and expert repair. They have a good selection of lighting that is historically appropriate and it is fun to browse. The team is great to work with, providing a quick turnaround time for rewiring and repairing items, from antique lamps to not-so-antique fixtures. They are very accommodating, helping with bulky items and offering plenty of parking. The staff works carefully on projects, using parts that look old, matching patinas, and ensuring proper hardware for installation. While a little off the beaten path, they are known for fantastic, detailed work, making them *the* place for lighting restoration and historically appropriate fixtures.
The team at Gibson was amazing. We brought in two hanging fixtures and two sconces from the 30s to be rewired and restored. I was blown away by what we got back. The prices were reasonable and everything was ready before he had promised. It is clear that they take pride in their work and I would use them again in a heartbeat.

Was gifted a cool old lamp made from an abacus, that no longer worked after I tried to attach a shade. Gibson rewired it completely and made sure to use (new) parts that looked old, down to the antiquey looking plug. Also changed it to a dimmer switch that works with any bulb. Very happy with the results.

What an amazing adventure. Granted it's by appointment only but any inconvenience for you is well worth the experience. Perfect place for either that one of a kind item or to have your own design to come together.
