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

The Empire style draws heavily from neoclassical motifs originating in late 18th and early 19th-century France, characterised by symmetry, classical ornamentation, and architectural influences inspired by ancient Greece and Rome.

Authentic period pieces were typically constructed from cast bronze or brass, often featuring gilt finishes, patinated metal elements, and sometimes crystal drops or Wedgwood plaques.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the casting quality, hand-threaded fasteners, natural patination of the metal, and period-appropriate wiring methods if the fixture has been electrified.

Pairing a formal historical fixture with contemporary furnishings creates a striking contrast that adds architectural depth and sophisticated visual weight to minimalist or transitional rooms.

Dust the fixture gently with a soft microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical polishes that can strip the historic patina; professional rewiring is recommended for safety.
