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 originated in France during the early 19th century under Napoleon Bonaparte, drawing heavy inspiration from the classical art and architecture of ancient Rome, Greece, and Egypt.

These fixtures are typically constructed using cast bronze or brass with gilt or patinated finishes, often featuring hand-chased ornamentation, linked chains, and candle-form sockets.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit period-appropriate casting techniques, hand-filed details, patination consistent with age, and traditional wiring or conversion indicators rather than modern mass-produced components.

Pairing this style of lighting with contemporary or neutral surroundings creates a striking contrast, allowing the classical motifs and metallic finishes to serve as a sophisticated focal point.

Dust the fixture gently with a soft microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes that can strip the historic patina or protective lacquer from the metal surface.
