"I can't recommend this company enough. Charming, utterly trustworthy people with a deep knowledge of and affection for their subject. I've dealt with other Chandelier companies before and I can only say I wish I had found Peter and Ben first."

"I took it back in pieces, the chandelier also in pieces, and both of us received first-class trauma therapy from Ben Higgins at G&P Cohn's chandelier hospital. A magic wand was waved, and within very few days the chandelier was looking back to its pre-smash condition."
