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

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Twin-arm wall sconces designed in the Rococo or Louis XV style originated in 18th-century France. Characterised by asymmetrical curves, leaf motifs, and ornate metalwork, these fixtures were crafted to reflect candlelight off mirrors and gilded surfaces in formal reception rooms.

Authentic period sconces were typically cast in bronze or brass using the lost-wax technique and finished with mercury gilding (ormolu) or gold lacquer. Later 19th and early 20th-century reproductions continued using cast brass with electroplated gilding.

Examine the rear casting marks, hand-chiselled detailing, and the weight of the metal. Original pieces often display hand-tapped thread patterns, natural patination or wear to the gilding in raised areas, and signs of historical conversion from candle sockets to electrical wiring.

Mount a pair flanking a central focal point such as an oversized chimneypiece mirror, artwork, or a hallway console table. The warm metallic tones complement both traditional painted woodwork and dark modern backdrops.

Dust regularly using a dry, soft-bristled brush or microfibre cloth to clean intricate scrollwork. Avoid liquid metal polishes or abrasive chemical cleaners, as these will strip the delicate gilding and destroy the natural aged patina.
