Been in London from di forties, seen it all. Talk about retro armchair, vintage sofa?. Share space wid three bredren, made a post but it scratch, it creak, but it solid. Nowadays dem want flat-pack quick. Step in Portobello, sofa carry story deep. Not glossy, but dem live long. Back in de day, people buy furniture to last. Dat’s why mi love vintage. Man look pon we like crazy, but It creak but it strong. Dat sofa still in mi memory. Design mix by area.

Kensington love velvet, wid plush sofa. Camden clash colour, wid mismatched armchair. Modern flat-pack? Dem carry no story. Vintage chair tell history. Mi speak plain, mi always choose retro over new. If you tink to buy quick, pick up sofa wid story, and let it be part of your life.
