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

Hanging hall lanterns originated in European vestibules and entrance halls during the 18th and 19th centuries, designed to safely hold candles or oil lamps and illuminate transitional spaces for arriving guests.

Traditional lanterns are typically constructed from hand-cast or spun brass frames fitted with curved or flat panes of clear glass, joined by mechanical fixings and solder rather than modern adhesives.

Authentic pieces often exhibit natural patination, heavy gauge metalwork, hand-cut glass with minor imperfections, and historical wiring components or threaded brass fittings characteristic of older manufacturing techniques.

Pairing a polished brass lantern with minimalist decor, neutral colour palettes, and contemporary architectural finishes creates a striking contrast that highlights the metallic texture and classic form.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and avoid abrasive metal cleaners or chemical polishes that can strip the protective lacquer or historic patina accumulated over time.
