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 hall lanterns originated in the 18th and 19th centuries, designed to illuminate grand entrances, stairwells, and vestibules in townhouses and chateaux while reflecting ambient light through glass panels.

Authentic pieces are typically constructed using cast and sheet brass frameworks combined with curved or flat glazed glass panels, often featuring hand-soldered joints and decorative metalwork mounts.

Authentication involves examining the patina, casting weight, screw types, and construction methods; older fixtures usually display natural oxidisation, hand-finished components, and period-appropriate wiring channels.

Hanging a metallic lantern in a modern hallway or above a compact dining space introduces textural contrast, combining historical character with clean architectural lines.

Clean polished brass gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust, avoiding harsh chemical abrasives that can strip the protective lacquering or damage the metal finish.
