[floychatterton]

I reach this city when Empire Windrush dock. Talk about retro armchair, armchairs vintage design vintage sofa?. We only could afford old sofa, but seat crack but it never mash up. Dem no see value in scratch and scar. Walk through Brixton Market, you see retro sofa pile high. Dem tings not showroom clean, but dem honest. When London swing 1960s, custom furniture designs Armchair pass from father to son. Every stain show moment. Cold, snow pon street, but It last twenty year. Mi can smell the leather now. Postcode tell story too.

Chelsea go fancy, wid deep wingback. Camden clash colour, wid upcycled seat. Dem soulless ting? Mi tell you straight – rubbish. Old funky accent seat carry life. Listen dis, mi love vintage over flat-pack. When you tempted by showroom, dig through retro, and watch it age same way as you.
