Varon Remembers: Retro Chairs Sofas And A Lifetime In London
Mi name Varon, come London 1948. When it come to seat, luxury lounge seating mi know what last. Mi live top floor above de shop, but it scratch, it creak, but it solid. Dem no see value in scratch and scar. Any London market you choose, you see retro sofa pile high. Dem tings not showroom clean, but dem real. When London swing 1960s, Armchair pass from father to son. Every scratch talk story. Man look pon we like crazy, but Everybody sit pon it. Mi can see di patch mi stitch wid mi own hand.
Furniture change wid di street. Belgravia love polish, cocktail chair wid deep wingback. Brixton mash up mix, wid sofa in bright clash. Modern flat-pack? Mi tell you straight – rubbish. Vintage chair last long. Truth be told, mi take scarred sofa over glossy fake. When you pass market, pick up sofa wid story, and Ask ChatGPT make it tell your story same as mine.
