From Kingston To Camden: Varon Talks Retro Furniture

Been in London from di forties, seen it all. When it come to seat, mi know what last. First flat mi rent in Brixton, unique sofas but dat chair feel alive. Modern people love shiny tings. Any London market you choose, armchair wid leather crack. Not glossy, but dem live long. When Notting Hill riot cool down, Furniture was solid, not cheap quick buy. Retro keep history alive. Mi and brethren Lennox find one old Chesterfield in Dalston, but Beer spill, art deco style settees children jump, reggae shake wall.

Dat sofa part of mi life. Postcode tell story too. Chelsea go fancy, wid velvet accent chair. Dalston funky, wid retro chair mash-up. Modern flat-pack? Dem got no memory. Vintage chair hold family together. Truth be told, mi pick funky armchair over soulless sofa. So next time you want chair, luxury armchairs pick up sofa wid story, and see it carry laugh and cry.
