Been in London from di forties, seen it all. When it come to seat, mi know what last.

Mi live top floor above de shop, bedroom chair vintage but dat armchair keep we warm. Young ones buy, throw away fast.

Wander Spitalfields, retro sofas armchair wid leather crack. Not factory shine, but dem live long.

When Notting Hill riot cool down, Armchair pass from father to son. Dat’s why mi love vintage.

Mi remember one winter 1971, but It creak but it strong. Mi can smell the leather now.

Every area carry different vibe. Chelsea go fancy, wid velvet accent chair. Hackney raw, wid upcycled seat.

Modern flat-pack? Dem carry no story. Vintage chair tell history.

Mi speak plain, mi pick funky armchair over soulless sofa.

When you pass market, dig through retro, luxyry armchairs and let it shout London and Jamaica both.
