Bryan B.
Business Owner
Bryan Booth has been restoring antique furniture for over twenty-five years. He apprenticed to Thomas McCaffrey in Brookfield Connecticut. Upon completion of his training Bryan and Thomas became partners and formed McCaffrey and Booth Antiques on route 7 in Brookfield. The pair did restoration and French Polishing for clients and offered items in their retail location.
After five years Bryan entered the antique show circuit appearing in shows from Maine to Washington D. C. and Nantucket to Ohio.
In 1995 Bryan and his wife Kathy relocated to the Big Island of Hawai‘i and built a house in the Puna district, where the work shop now resides. He began building his restoration business in the area, and eventually showcased his furniture in antique stores in Waimea and Honoka‘a, before establishing his own retail store in Hilo.
