Varon Remembers: Retro Chairs Sofas And A Lifetime In London
Mi name Varon, come London 1948. The real ting never lose value. We only could afford old sofa, but dat armchair keep we warm. Nowadays dem want flat-pack quick. Go down to Camden, armchair wid leather crack. Not new outta box, but dem true. When London swing 1960s, Sofa stay whole family life. Every scratch talk story. Cold, snow pon street, but dat sofa warm half community. Dat sofa part of mi life.
family-friendly furniture change wid di street. Kensington love velvet, wid deep wingback. Camden clash colour, comfort accent chairs wid mismatched armchair. Dem soulless ting? Mi tell you straight – rubbish. Vintage chair grow wid you. Mi speak plain, mi love vintage over flat-pack. So next time you want chair, stop an look round, and let it be part of your life.
