Rejuvenation is an American manufacturer and direct marketer of light fixtures and hardware. The company builds most of their lighting in Portland, Oregon. Williams-Sonoma acquired the company in November 2011.
History
Rejuvenation began in 1977 as an architectural salvage shop in a former saloon in North Portland. Jim Kelly began the business with $1,000 and an interest in architectural salvage. When business was slow, Kelly rebuilt vintage light fixtures. Rejuvenation was acquired by Williams-Sonoma, Inc., in November 2011.
Demand for the fixtures grew, and soon Kelly began manufacturing reproduction lighting in his Portland factory and selling it nationally through a mail-order catalog. A website was added in 1997, a store in Seattle, Washington, that launched in 2004, and a Los Angeles store located in the Helms Bakery buildings in late 2011, along with a Berkeley store in 2012.
Today, Rejuvenation is America's largest manufacturer of authentic reproduction lighting and house parts. Additionally, the company is known for its commitment to green manufacturing and its support for livable communities.
