Forget catalogue gloss – London’s got grit. Stroll Camden Lock and you’ll spot accent chairs with bite. They’ve seen better days, comfortable armchairs but they talk back.

When my nan was about, you didn’t buy stuff to bin it after a year. You’d save for a accent chair that mattered, and it’d soak up smoke and beer. That’s what vintage keeps alive in this city.

I’ll never forget, dodging the rain. I spotted a torn leather club chair. It weren’t showroom clean, but I sat in and knew straight — this chair had history.

Backstreet dealers always know someone. Camden Market cough up sofas with weight. You need to keep your eyes peeled. I’ve clambered over dusty frames, but the chair shows itself.

Design splits by borough. Kensington plays plush, retro style armchair with wingback chairs. Shoreditch stays scrappy, with odd retro sofas. Peckham’s daring, and you’ll see patched seats that feel like the city itself.

It’s the characters that matter. Cockney dealers shouting prices. The clash keeps it alive. I’ve walked away then come back and dragged sofas down streets. That’s London grit.

Let’s have it right, scars make it real. an armchair’s more than stuffing. It holds arguments.

When you’re sniffing about, skip the bland shops. Grab a retro armchair, and let it talk back.
