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

FAQs

French chandeliers from the 19th and early 20th centuries typically feature refined classical proportions, ornate metalwork such as gilt brass or bronze, and graceful scrolling arms designed to emulate traditional candle lighting.

These fixtures were predominantly constructed using cast brass, bronze, or copper bases, often finished with a gold gilt layer, alongside hand-cut crystal drops, porcelain elements, or applied patinas depending on the specific period.

Authentic period pieces generally exhibit heavy cast construction with visible hand-finishing marks, natural oxidisation in recessed areas, threaded screw fittings rather than modern machine fasteners, and traditional wiring or chain links characteristic of older manufacturing techniques.

Hanging a classic metallic chandelier in a contemporary space provides an effective focal point that contrasts clean architectural lines with historical texture, creating a balanced and layered room scheme.

Gilt brass should be dusted regularly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent the accumulation of dirt; abrasive cleaners or chemical polishes must be avoided to protect the delicate gold-gilt surface layer from permanent damage.
