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

The Empire style emerged in France during the early 19th century, heavily influenced by neoclassical motifs from ancient Greece and Rome. It was characterised by military triumph symbols, classical symmetry, and rich materials intended to project imperial power and grandeur.

Authentic period wall lights typically feature cast or ormolu-finished brass, bronze, and sometimes patinated metal elements. Components were individually cast and hand-chased, often assembled using threaded screws rather than modern welding.

Authentication involves examining the casting quality, patination, and fastener types. Genuine older pieces display hand-cut threading, natural wear patterns in the metal finish, and construction techniques consistent with historical manufacturing periods.

These fixtures serve as striking focal points when mounted symmetrically in hallways, flanking a fireplace, or above a sideboard. Pairing them with modern minimalist furniture creates an effective contrast between historical ornamentation and clean lines.

Dusting gently with a soft, dry cloth is recommended to prevent accumulation. Harsh chemical polishes should be avoided to preserve the natural patina and historical finish of the metal.
