An Old London Voice on Vintage Sofas, Funky Armchairs and Life

Mi name Varon, come London 1948. Furniture? Chairs, sofa, dem tings?.

First flat mi rent in Brixton, but it scratch, it creak, but it solid. But mi tell you, retro sitting room piece worth more than gold.

Any London market you choose, couch and accent chairs vintage wingback smell of years. Dem tings not showroom clean, funky sofas uk but dem honest.

Back in de day, Accent chair sit same corner thirty years. Every scratch talk story.

Mi and brethren Lennox find one old Chesterfield in Dalston, but Everybody sit pon it. Mi can hear di spring creak when man drop heavy.

Furniture change wid di street. Belgravia love polish, wid velvet accent chair. Brixton mash up mix, wid retro chair mash-up.

Modern flat-pack? Dat nuh worth nutten. Retro sofa tell history.

Listen dis, mi always choose retro over new.

If you tink to buy quick, take armchair wid scar, and let it be part of your life.
