I tell you, London change plenty but some tings stay same. Mi see chair come, chair go. Mi live top floor above de shop, but dat chair feel alive. Modern people love shiny tings. Any London market you choose, vintage wingback smell of years. Not pretty-pretty, but dem live long. When London swing 1960s, people buy furniture to last. Retro keep history alive. We drag it on trolley all di way Brixton, but Everybody sit pon it.
Mi can see di patch mi stitch wid mi own hand. Postcode tell story too. Chelsea go fancy, wid velvet accent chair. Shoreditch wild, wid mismatched armchair. Modern flat-pack? Dem carry no story. Vintage chair carry life. Mi speak plain, unusual sofas mi back di old ting every time. If you tink to buy quick, carry home accent chair dat live, and let it shout London and Jamaica both.
