Vintage Armchairs, Accent Chairs, and Sofas: Proper Character for Real Homes I can’t walk past a retro armchair without stopping for a look. When I was a kid my nan had this battered armchair. The fabric was torn but held together, but it carried memories. In the days of smoky pubs and jazz clubs, an armchair wasn’t just a seat. You’d go second-hand instead of brand new. That history clings to vintage pieces. I once pulled a Chesterfield out of a warehouse in Hackney.

The legs were wobbling, but you can’t fake that kind of comfort. Friends always fight to sit in it. Every borough in London has its own taste. Belgravia keeps it polished, with deep sofas. Brixton thrives on colour, with upcycled seats. The contrast keeps it alive. Modern flat-pack doesn’t hold a candle. Old-school sofas last decades. They’re not perfect, but neither are we. If you ask me straight, I’ll pick a vintage sofa over new every time.

A chair should hold your nights. If you’re scrolling catalogue sites, wander a street full of second-hand luxury lounge seating shops. Grab a vintage sofa, and make it part of your story.
