"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.

This pair of French ceiling lights dates from 1930 and belongs to the French Rococo style. Made from gilt brass and metal, they have a bright gold colour and feature acanthus leaf details, scroll arms, candle sleeves, and fluted ceiling roses. The chandeliers are decorated with scrolling foliate arms, candle-effect sockets, and decorative hanging chains suspended from hooks, complete with visible electrical wiring and bulb fittings. Each chandelier measures 27 cm high, 38 cm wide, and 38 cm deep. These light fixtures provide functional overhead lighting and suit domestic interiors such as a dining room, hallway, or living room. They hang from the ceiling and accept E14 candle-bulb fixtures, accommodating modern LEDs or incandescent bulbs up to 25 watts. The fully rewired and PAT-tested units arrive ready for professional installation in a home setting.

French Rococo style lighting typically features fluid S-scroll and C-scroll curves, intricate foliate motifs such as acanthus leaves, and asymmetrical detailing, often rendered in cast brass or gilt bronze.

Traditional pieces were sand-cast in brass or bronze sections, hand-chased to refine decorative details, and finished with gilding or lacquer before being assembled using central threaded rods and candle sockets.

Authentic examples exhibit heavy cast metal construction, visible seam lines or hand-chased detail work, historical casting marks, and natural patination or wear on high points rather than uniform modern spray coatings.

Hanging a matching pair above a long dining table, kitchen island, or within a hallway creates symmetry and visual balance, bridging classic architecture with contemporary decor.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth or soft brush, and avoid abrasive chemical polishes which can strip protective lacquers or original gilt finishes.
