The restoration process for antique lamps is when our staff brings back an older or antique lamp to its original condition. Or returns the lamp as close as possible to its original condition without interfering with the integrity of the lamp. During the restoration process, it can include both structural and finishing work. When we finish an antique lamp, we bring back the existing finish by using the original solvents. We use the original solvents because they do a much better job penetrating and adhering to the new finish. And allows you to see the old lamp look like new again.

When we want to get rid of a lamp's old wires and socket, we follow a few steps.

1. Before we begin, we will disconnect the lamp from its power source.
2. The we will remove the socket shell and use a flat head screwdriver in order to pry the socket shell up.
3. Then we will loosen the socket terminal screws. Unwinding the wire so that we can gently pull it out from the base of the lamp.
4. Once we remove the wire, then we will loosen the set-screw if there is one, since this secures the socket. From there, the socket can be un-threaded from the lamp pipe.
