What an amazing adventure. Granted its 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.

Jim Gibson is an incredible artisan. He has created the most stunning pieces for many of our projects. Not only is his lighting amazing with hand blown glass and elegant details but he has also created beautiful range hoods, carved and cast moldings and mirror frames.All of that in the package of a charming + reliable man. Im a super fan.

Jim Gibson and Gilbert Meza and the entire crew at Gibson Antique Lighting are incredible and the best in San Diego. My historic home was basically destroyed when a water pipe broke and Jim did wonders to help me. First he repaired a chandelier and restored it so that no one could tell there was water damage. Second, he helped me create historical lightening pieces by using items in his shop that complemented the time period for my house. No one can believe they are new!! Finally Jim helped in the areas where I wanted lighting to be creative in my kitchen by creating the best lighting fixture ever- a chandelier of vintage cookie cutters and childrens pots and pans. It is a one of a kind creation and every visitor takes a picture of it. Jims talents go beyond lighting and he helped me create bar stools to match the chandelier by painting second-hand bar stools red with large pots as the seats.I hope Gibson stays in business for a long time. Gilbert and the rest of the staff is wonderful to work with and exercised a tremendous amount of patience with me as I went through the trauma of rebuilding my house after the flood. They are my go-to place for lighting. Jim never says no to my ideas and always finds a way to make them work.

My husband and I have worked with Jim Gibson since we bought our house in 1998. He literally has put most every light fixture in for us. We count ourselves so fortunate to have found him. He is unbelievably knowledgeable and has so much foresight. His inventory is vast and his vision is even larger. I found him kind, patient, and searching for the perfect lighting for our home. When I move, his fixtures are what I will take with me.

Gibson & Gibson Lighting is one of the most creative lighting businesses Ive ever been in. Jim Gibson helped me not only to create some beautiful fixtures for my home in San Diego, but he also gave me all the confidence to and assistance in making all the light fixtures for a home in Santa Fe, NM. Everything from the wall sconces to the ceiling fixtures and chandeliers turned out exquisite and the compliments on both houses have been numerous. What a great experience!

Wonderful resource for period lighting early 20th century. Shopped there 25 years ago for 1931 Spanish eclectic home.

Gibson Lighting is a joy to work with. Excellent service, creative ideas, terrific problem solvers. We have done multiple projects together -- many for our own house. Although its a hike to get to Jims shop, it is SO worth the trip!In addition, on the rare occurrence when theres a problem with one of his lights, Jim stands behind everything that he produces! 100% customer satisfaction is what you receive when working with Gibson Lughting.

A huge antique collection of every type, style of lighting fixture you could ever want! They can fix or clean up anything! One of a kind fixtures!!

A great resource! As a designer, I appreciate Jims ability to find or make just the right lighting to add interest to my clients projects. Quality and creativity.

From creating custom light fixtures for THE White House in Washington D.C. - to restoring the lobby chandelier inside of the Hotel Del Coronado - to repairing a small single light table lamp.... No job is ever too big or too small for Gibson Lighting.

Gibson and Gibson Antique Lighting is a wonderful source I have been working with Jim for almost 30 years as an interior designer Jim has manufactured outstanding products for my clients and is a delight to work with.

AMAZING- no better place to address your lighting needs. Love the shop and staff, they are very helpful and knowledgable.

Jim has worked with us on two separate projects. He brings creativity and enthusiasm to whatever he does. He also is also a subcontractor who delivers when he says he will...an increasingly rare commodity in todays construction industry. We feel very fortunate to have Jim working with us on our restaurants.Claire AllisonClaires on Cedros246 N. CedrosSolana Beach, CA 92075

Gibson & Gibson shop is one of the best lighting sources in San Diego, or for that matter, anywhere. I have worked with Jim and his staff for yearsfor custom lighting fixtures and refurbishing and rewiring older fixtures.

I have worked with Jim for the past 7 years. Any challenge I give him, he delivers!
