From Kingston To Camden: Varon Talks Retro Furniture

I tell you, London change plenty but some tings stay same. Mi see chair come, chair go. Back then, South London rough, cold, but dat sofa hold story. Dem no see value in scratch and scar. Go down to Camden, armchair wid leather crack. Not pretty-pretty, funky but dem true. When Notting Hill riot cool down, Armchair pass from father to son. Dat’s why mi love vintage. Mi remember one winter 1971, retro style armchair but dat sofa warm half community.

Mi can see di patch mi stitch wid mi own hand. Furniture change wid di street. Belgravia love polish, wid plush sofa. Hackney raw, wid upcycled seat. Dem soulless ting? Dem got no memory. Vintage chair tell history. Truth be told, comfort accent chairs mi back di old ting every time. If you tink to buy quick, take armchair wid scar, and watch it age same way as you.
