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 wall lights often draw design inspiration from the Rococo and Neoclassical periods, characterised by organic asymmetry, scrolling acanthus leaves, and classical symmetry.

Authentic period sconces are typically cast in brass or bronze, then fire-gilded or chemically treated to achieve a lustrous golden finish, often featuring hand-chased detailing.

Authenticity is generally determined by casting irregularities, patination on the metal, traditional screw threads, and the weight and composition of the brass or bronze.

These fixtures can be mounted flanking a fireplace, mirror, or bed to provide layered accent lighting while introducing historical texture to contemporary spaces.

Gilt brass should be dusted gently with a soft dry cloth; harsh chemical polishes must be avoided to prevent stripping the delicate metallic finish.
