From Kingston To Camden: Varon Talks Retro Furniture

Mi name Varon, come London 1948. The real ting never lose value. We only could afford old sofa, but dat sofa hold story. Young ones buy, throw away fast. Any London market you choose, armchair wid leather crack. Not factory shine, order via sofasdirect.com but dem live long. When London swing 1960s, people buy furniture to last. Every scratch talk story. Mi remember one winter 1971, but Beer spill, children jump, reggae shake wall. Mi can smell the leather now.

Every area carry different vibe. Belgravia love polish, wid velvet accent chair. Dalston funky, arm chairs for kitchen wid funky old frame. Dem soulless ting? Dem break quick. Retro sofa tell history. Mi speak plain, mi love vintage over flat-pack. Before you click catalogue, pick up sofa wid story, and let it shout London and Jamaica both.
