From Kingston To Camden: Varon Talks Retro Furniture

I reach this city when Empire Windrush dock. Mi see chair come, chair go. Back then, South London rough, cold, but dat armchair keep we warm. Nowadays dem want flat-pack quick. Wander Spitalfields, vintage wingback smell of years. Not new outta box, but dem true. When London swing 1960s, Armchair pass from father to son. Retro keep history alive. Mi and brethren Lennox find one old Chesterfield in Dalston, but Everybody sit pon it.

Dat sofa part of mi life. Furniture change wid di street. Chelsea go fancy, wid velvet accent chair. Dalston funky, wid mismatched armchair. Dem soulless ting? Dem break quick. Old funky chairs for living room accent seat grow wid you. End of de day, mi back di old ting every time. If you tink to buy quick, take armchair wid scar, and make it tell your story same as mine.
