Been in London from di forties, seen it all. When it come to seat, mi know what last. Share space wid three bredren, high-end living room sets but dat armchair keep we warm. Dem no see value in scratch and scar. Step in Portobello, vintage wingback smell of years. Not factory shine, but dem real. When Notting Hill riot cool down, Accent chair sit same corner thirty years. Dat’s why mi love vintage. Mi and brethren Lennox find one old Chesterfield in Dalston, but Beer spill, children jump, reggae shake wall.
Mi can smell the leather now. Furniture change wid di street. Kensington love velvet, wid deep wingback. Dalston funky, wid mismatched armchair. Modern flat-pack? Dem break quick. Vintage chair last long. Truth be told, mi always choose retro over new. Before you click catalogue, pick up sofa wid story, and let it shout London and Jamaica both.
