Your Proprietors, Ron & Julie Palladino
Ron and Julie Palladino founded Renaissance Antiques in 1979. They pioneered high-profile retail businesses in Solvang by introducing world-class merchandise to a market traditionally focused on more modest products.
Their passion for antiques began in Los Angeles. They initially sold antique clocks at swap meets and garage sales. This hobby quickly blossomed into a full-scale passion. It led to the opening of their first antique clock showroom and repair shop in 1973, nestled in a two-car garage off an alley in West Los Angeles. Within a year, they expanded to a more visible showroom.
During a visit to the picturesque village of Solvang in 1977, they fell in love with the charming town. They decided to relocate their business to this idyllic setting. Their modest repair shop grew into a 750-square-foot retail showroom, soon employing six people.
Their business thrived, expanding to four locations in Solvang with over 20,000 square feet and 32 employees. Ron and Julie’s commitment to quality led them to remodel some of Solvang’s most neglected properties. They set new design standards and pioneered architectural techniques that have enhanced the village’s charm.
