London ain’t about shiny showrooms. Duck down Hackney Lane and you’ll spot designer armchairs with cracks. They’ve seen better days, but they’ve got soul.

When Soho never slept, you didn’t buy stuff to bin it after a year. You’d hunt down a proper armchair, and it’d take its lumps. That’s what vintage means in London.

I remember, after a bit of mischief. I saw a torn leather club chair. It weren’t showroom clean, but I dropped in and felt straight — this chair had history.

Car boots keep secrets. Deptford High Street spit out retro gems. You need patience to wait it out. I’ve dug through piles of rubbish, but the chair shows itself.

Postcodes carry personality. Chelsea leans posh, with deep armchairs. Camden’s mad and messy, with odd retro sofas. Peckham’s daring, and you’ll spot stripped leather that clash yet sing.

It’s the characters that matter. Old boys sipping tea on a chair they won’t sell. The clash keeps it alive. I’ve argued for hours over a price and dragged sofas down streets. That’s retro life in the capital.

At the end of the day, 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 watch it grow old with you.
