I reach this city when Empire Windrush dock. Furniture? Chairs, sofa, dem tings?. Back then, South London rough, cold, but dat armchair keep we warm. Young ones buy, throw away fast. Walk through Brixton Market, funky accent chair bright like carnival. Not pretty-pretty, but dem carry London inside. When reggae first play in Brixton pub, people buy furniture to last. Retro keep history alive. We drag it on trolley all di way Brixton, but It last twenty year.
Dat sofa part of mi life. Furniture change wid di street. Kensington love velvet, wid deep wingback. Dalston funky, wid sofa in bright clash. Dem soulless ting? Dat nuh worth nutten. armchairs vintage design chair tell history. Truth be told, mi always choose retro over new. When you tempted by showroom, take armchair wid scar, and make it tell your story same as mine.
