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.

French hanging lanterns were traditionally used in the entrance halls, corridors, and stairwells of period townhouses and chateaux, evolving from utilitarian street lighting into decorative interior fixtures during the 18th and 19th centuries.

Authentic period lanterns are typically constructed from cast or gilt brass, bronze, or copper frameworks fitted with blown or curved sheet glass panels, often incorporating hand-soldered joints and detailed metal castings.

Authentification involves examining the construction of the metal frame for hand-chiselling, examining the glass for historical imperfections such as bubbles and waviness, and checking the wiring methods and patina for signs of age.

This style of lighting works well as a focal point in a hallway, entryway, or above a kitchen island, contrasting contemporary minimalist architecture with historic metallic texture and warm illumination.

To preserve the historic patina, metal surfaces should only be dusted gently with a dry, soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemical brass cleaners or abrasive polishes that can strip the protective aged finish.
