연락처 : OV 이메일 : hiltonodoms@gmail.com I’ve been in the trade man and boy for decades. Amongst the squares and crescents, people don’t buy just to sit. Designers with clients in tow, and they all want a piece that speaks. A retro armchair, delivers precisely what they’re after. One battered club chair was claimed for a Notting Hill film set, and stylish upholstered seating it carried his family through generations. That’s what vintage means. They flick through glossy catalogues, but eventually they realise. Fabric frays fast, whereas vintage lasts.

Every part of London tells a different story. Chelsea wants polish, with deep seats. Dalston experimental, with funky fabrics. That’s what keeps us alive. End of the day, accent chairs outlive their buyers. You don’t get that from a catalogue. I still check the stitching for strength, and the difference is clear. History sits with you. So when you’re tempted by the new, stop. Choose a funky accent chair, living room chairs and sofas and allow it to tell your story.
