When I was a kid my nan had this battered armchair. It was worn, patched, bedroom chair vintage and squeaky, but it was part of us. When London was swinging, furniture meant something. chairs and sofa lived longer than flats. That history clings to vintage pieces. I bartered for a sofa on Brick Lane one rainy morning. It weren’t pretty at first glance, but you can’t fake that kind of comfort.

It’s carried me through late nights and lazy Sundays. You can tell the area by the chairs. Mayfair goes glossy, with grand accent chairs. Dalston keeps it cheeky, with industrial armchairs. The contrast keeps it alive. New furniture looks dead next to vintage. Armchairs with scars grow with you. Every creak is a memory. At the end of the day, retro wins because it’s real. A chair should hold your nights. Next time you’re thinking of flat-pack, stop and quirky sofas think of the markets.

Save a battered seat, and make it part of your story.
