Mi name Varon, come London 1948. Furniture? Chairs, sofa, dem tings?. First flat mi rent in Brixton, but it scratch, it creak, but it solid. modern living room furniture people love shiny tings. Walk through Brixton Market, you see retro sofa pile high. Not glossy, but dem true. When London swing 1960s, people buy furniture to last. Every scratch talk story. Cold, snow pon street, but It last twenty year. Mi can smell the leather now. Postcode tell story too.
Kensington love velvet, wid deep wingback. Shoreditch wild, wid funky old frame. Dem soulless ting? Dem carry no story. Vintage chair carry life. End of de day, mi always choose retro over new. Before you click catalogue, take armchair wid scar, and let it shout London and Jamaica both.
