This is the most amazing antique shop I've ever seen. They have some really neat items, mostly clocks and music boxes. A lot of this stuff could be in a museum. Honestly this store is better than some museums I've seen! Take a look inside...Read More

The friends we are traveling with dropped off an 1880s music box for repair. This is the most amazing shop! They focus on mechanical antiques. I loved this store.

This is a wonderful antique store full of whimsical clocks and furniture. I have never witnessed such an assortment of antique clocks from so many different periods. There was a giant marble one that had a sold sign on it for 75k! But they also...Read More

Amazing collection of antiques. The workers were so kind and willing to show you different pieces and demonstrate how their music boxes and automatons work. Quite the interesting shop and I can't wait to go back.

Hands down one of the best curated antique shops I have even been into. Sad to read they are liquidating but happy someone will be able to retire. Best collecting of skeleton watches I have ever seen. I want to go back.

They were able to repair a very complicated mechanical watch from a defunct brand, and charged almost nothing for it. The shop is beautiful and they are always kind and friendly to everyone that stops in. No "sizing" up of customers like many other fine arts/jewelry...Read More

This is a very special shop, featuring numerous beautiful phonographs, music boxes, grandfather clocks, and much more. Super helpful staff happy to demo the goods. Also the best watch technician in a fifty mile radius, super quick to replace my battery.

Renaissance is a wonderful place. I was born in California and my folks used to visit Solvang once a year. In 1976 we were surprised to find the Palladinos in a small shop on Copenhagen drive and bought a small Flying Pendulum novelty...Read More

Ron and Julie Palladino were so kind and helpful with appraising 2 antique clocks that my parents had left to me. I had contacted several appraisers concerning the clocks only to be given the runaround. It was so comforting to have Renaissance Antiques...Read More
