Had a wonderful experience getting an antique lamp rewired at RARE Restoration. Lovely, knowledgeable team of people working here. Can't recommend enough!

Antiques restored with a side of attitude. Sent an email inquiring about a service, waited a week for a response, then when they finally did respond, no apologies for missing the email, and sent me elsewhere for daring to form a conjecture that they did not offer my service based upon their lack of response.

A uniquely impressive and positive experience. I had a high end lamp that needed repair. Called many places in Boston area. Most could not do repair and some said yes but with high price and long wait time. I left a message for Seth who called me right back. Looked at photos I sent and said he could do repair. I brought lamp in to his cool shop. He repaired while I waited and could not have been more fair in the pricing. He is a talented pro and we are lucky to have his skills in the area.
