From Kingston To Camden: Varon Talks Retro Furniture
I tell you, London change plenty but some tings stay same. When it come to seat, mi know what last. Mi live top floor above de shop, but dat armchair keep we warm. Young ones buy, throw away fast. Go down to Camden, sofa carry story deep. Not factory shine, but dem live long. When Notting Hill riot cool down, sofa store stay whole family life. Every spring hold laugh and cry. Mi and brethren Lennox find one old Chesterfield in Dalston, but dat sofa warm half community.
Mi can see di patch mi stitch wid mi own hand. Design mix by area. Belgravia love polish, wid deep wingback. Brixton mash up mix, wid funky old frame. Dem soulless ting? Dem break quick. Old funky accent seat last long. End of de day, mi pick funky armchair over soulless sofa. When you tempted by showroom, arm chairs for kitchen take armchair wid scar, and watch it age same way as you.
