Rather than buying new lights, I've been retrofitting dilapidated vintage lights into our cottage. One of the light mechanisms in an old factory pen lamp was screwed up more than I could decipher with a voltmeter. I brought the offending light to Berkeley Lighting, and they dove in and fixed the problem with only a little bit of digging through the spare bits of a hardware box. I am pleased beyond belief, and I know where I'll be going the next time I need to purchase lighting.

Wow. Loving this store, it's like walking through art gallery…read more Lunaria East opened just a few months ago. It's a family owned business and this is their second location in the bay area. Their other store is located in Marin. They specializing in unique, hard to find designer pieces for residential and commercial spaces. Now I have always had a thing for chandeliers, but the lighting here is next level and creates a statement piece for any room. Honestly I never thought about lighting in this way. Some of the pieces are like sculptures. I was a little intimidated at first, because I thought I couldn't afford anything in here but most of the pieces are pretty reasonable, and they have something in every price range. One of the owners said hello and when we asked about pieces, he walked us through the store and pointed out a few of his favorite designers. You can tell that they have a true passion for lighting and design. They carry over 150 designers from all over the world, and the curation here is impeccable. They also offer interior design services for home and lighting. After stopping by I'm seriously thinking if I should swap out my crystal chandeliers for of these signature art pieces. Truly transforms your space from basic to a work of art. Bravo Lunaria.
