Dealers Notes

"Heritage Quality Without the High Street Mark-up"

Hodgson Antiques (www.hodgsonantiques.co.uk) has been in the antique trade and dealing independently since 2012. Based in Derbyshire countryside operating solely online, we specialise in antique and vintage lighting, table lamps, ceiling lights, chandeliers, wall lights and lanterns together with some selectively sourced decorative items. We source items from around the UK, Europe and the rest of the world.

We believe that acquiring exceptional, fully restored period lighting shouldn't require paying premium high-street showroom prices. By operating entirely online and focusing our resources into our own dedicated restoration workshop, we have completely reimagined the traditional antique gallery model. We have a significant structural pricing advantage over traditional brick-and-mortar storefronts, which enables us to offer the exact high quality and meticulous restoration you find in the high street showrooms – delivered directly from our workshop at transparent competitive trade prices passing substantial savings onto our customers.

All our antique lights are fully overhauled, professionally cleaned, rewired and PAT tested to UK standards ready for installation. They are supplied with period-style matching aged fixing brass screws, fittings.

Our lighting is safely wrapped in heavy-duty protective packaging and dispatched the next day via premium tracked courier within mainland UK (delivery charge applies at checkout). As an independent workshop, we highly appreciate direct bank transfers (BACS). If you prefer to pay directly via bank transfer, we will happily waive the delivery fee as a thank you. Please contact us directly via the email link or phone number below before clicking 'Buy Now' to receive your free shipping invoice

French gilt brass wall lights, often referred to as appliques, trace their origins to the 17th and 18th centuries when they were developed to illuminate formal rooms by reflecting candlelight off polished metal and mirrors.

These fixtures are traditionally crafted from cast brass, which is then chemically or electroplated with gold leaf or ormolu to achieve the characteristic gilt finish, often featuring hand-chased detailing.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit signs of age such as hand-filing marks, natural oxidation of the brass beneath the gilt, heavy casting weight, and historical wiring methods if they have been electrified.

They can be integrated into modern schemes by mounting them against textured neutral walls to highlight their metallic finish, serving as sculptural accent lighting in hallways, living rooms, or bedrooms.

Gilt brass should be cleaned only with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove dust; harsh chemical polishes, abrasive cloths, and liquids must be avoided to prevent stripping the delicate gold finish.
