I tell you, London change plenty but some tings stay same. Talk about retro armchair, vintage sofa?. We only could afford old sofa, but dat sofa hold story. Nowadays dem want flat-pack quick. Step in Portobello, vintage wingback smell of years. Not new outta box, but dem live long. When reggae first play in Brixton pub, Furniture was solid, luxury chairs uk not cheap quick buy. Every spring hold laugh and cry. We drag it on trolley all di way Brixton, but It last twenty year.
Dat sofa still in mi memory. London borough different style. Kensington love velvet, wid plush sofa. Hackney raw, wid retro chair mash-up. Dem soulless ting? Mi tell you straight – rubbish. Retro sofa carry life. End of de day, mi love vintage over flat-pack. When you pass market, chairs and sofa carry home accent chair dat live, and let it shout London and Jamaica both.
