“I was always one of those kids who picked things up from the street to fix them up and give them a new lease on life,” says Peter Breese, owner of Eclectic Revival. “Growing up in the 70s when everything was made from plastic, I had an appreciation for old things that showed craftsmanship and quality.”
This early talent for ferreting out items with both functional and decorative potential led to a career in lighting ranging from the restoration of vintage lights to building custom light fixtures and lamps from a variety of repurposed materials.
