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 gained prominence during the 17th and 18th centuries under the reigns of Louis XIV, XV, and XVI, transitioning from carved wood and iron to polished brass, bronze, and multifaceted glass crystals designed to maximise candlelight reflection.

Authentic pieces typically feature cast gilt bronze or brass frames paired with hand-cut lead crystal or glass prisms, often assembled using traditional brass wire pins rather than modern synthetic adhesives.

Authentication involves examining the casting quality of the metal, the presence of hand-cut facets and minor imperfections in the glass crystals, the type of joinery and wiring, and natural patination indicative of age.

Integrating an antique fixture into a modern space provides a striking focal point; hanging it in unexpected areas like a minimalist hallway, above a compact dining table, or in a contemporary bathroom creates a sophisticated juxtaposition of eras.

Clean crystals individually using a lint-free cloth and a mild solution of warm water and isopropyl alcohol without removing the fixture, avoiding harsh chemical polishes on aged brass to preserve its historical patina.
