Varon Remembers: Retro Chairs Sofas And A Lifetime In London

Been in London from di forties, seen it all. Talk about retro armchair, vintage sofa?. Share space wid three bredren, but seat crack but it never mash up. Dem no see value in scratch and modern armchairs scar. Go down to Camden, sofa carry story deep. Not glossy, but dem live long. Back in de day, Armchair pass from father to son. Every spring hold laugh and cry. Cold, snow pon street, but It creak but it strong. Mi can hear di spring creak when man drop heavy. Furniture change wid di street. Kensington love velvet, wid velvet accent chair.

Shoreditch wild, wid mismatched armchair. Dem soulless ting? Dem carry no story. Vintage chair hold family together. Truth be told, mi love vintage over flat-pack. So next time you want chair, dig through retro, and make it tell your story same as mine.
