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

Glass lanterns have been used in British hallways and vestibules since the Georgian and Victorian eras, originally designed to protect candlelight from draughts before transitioning to gas and electricity.

Traditional lanterns are typically constructed using blown or pressed coloured glass panels set within a metal framework of brass, copper, or bronze, joined by soldered lead or metallic cames.

Authentic period lanterns often exhibit handmade characteristics such as bubbles and variations within the glass, heavy patination on the metal components, and older wiring components replaced for modern safety compliance.

Suspending an amber glass lantern in a hallway, entryway, or above a compact kitchen island adds warm, diffused illumination and introduces vintage character to contemporary spaces.

Dust glass panels gently with a soft microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners on aged metal frames to preserve the natural oxidisation and patina.
