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

A birdcage chandelier is a traditional lighting fixture characterised by a central open metal frame resembling a birdcage, often draped with crystal strands and glass drops.

These fixtures traditionally combine cast brass or bronze frames with moulded glass central columns and cut crystal or glass pendants and beads.

Authentic pieces often feature hand-cut crystal drops with visible pin attachments, aged metal patination, hand-blown glass components, and traditional wiring methods adapted over time.

Pairing an ornate period chandelier with minimalist contemporary furniture creates a balanced, eclectic aesthetic that highlights the fixture as a focal point.

Dust components regularly with a soft brush and clean crystals carefully using a mild solution of warm water and isopropyl alcohol while the fixture is switched off.
