A Jamaican Cockney Tale: Why Retro Armchairs Still Matter

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 armchair keep we warm. Modern people love shiny tings. Wander Spitalfields, vintage wingback smell of years. Not pretty-pretty, but dem live long. Back in de day, Furniture was solid, not cheap quick buy. Every stain show moment. Mi remember one winter 1971, but Everybody sit pon it. Dat sofa still in mi memory.

London borough different style. Belgravia love polish, wid plush sofa. Brixton mash up mix, wid mismatched armchair. Modern flat-pack? Dem break quick. Retro sofa last long. End of de day, mi always choose retro over new. So next time you want chair, accent chairs for living room carry home accent chair and sofa chair dat live, and see it carry laugh and cry.
