A Jamaican Cockney Tale: Why Retro Armchairs Still Matter

Been in London from di forties, seen it all. When it come to seat, mi know what last. First flat mi rent in Brixton, but it scratch, it creak, but it solid. Young ones buy, throw away fast. Walk through Brixton Market, you see retro sofa pile high. Not pretty-pretty, but dem honest. When reggae first play in Brixton pub, Accent chair sit same corner thirty years. Every stain show moment. Man look pon we like crazy, but Everybody sit pon it. Mi can hear di spring creak when man drop heavy.

Design mix by area. Belgravia love polish, wid velvet accent chair. Camden clash colour, wid retro chair mash-up. Modern flat-pack? Dem got no memory. Old funky accent seat tell history. End of de day, mi love vintage over flat-pack. When you pass market, accent chair funky dig through retro, vintage accent chairs and luxury lounge seating let it be part of your life.
