Scorched antique copper tea kettle

I have a very nice antique copper tea kettle where the lining is in quite good condition. However, my wife accidentally boiled the pot dry one day. Not only did some of the lining/solder melt into a little pool (which didn't adhere to the kettle) but the outside is now scorched and blackish. Who can restore my copper kettle? Will we be able to use it again? And how much will it cost me?
