This city don’t live off flat-pack. Cut across Shoreditch backstreets and mid-century armchair you’ll spot sofas with scars. They ain’t perfect, but they carry weight.

Back in the day, a sofa weren’t just a sofa. You’d save for a proper armchair, and it’d soak up smoke and beer. That’s what retro still counts for.

I remember, killing time before a pint. I saw a torn leather club chair. It weren’t showroom clean, but I sat in and realised straight — this chair had history.

Markets still hold treasure. Spitalfields spit out armchairs with edge. You need to keep your eyes peeled. I’ve dug through piles of rubbish, but the payoff comes.

Each bit of London’s got its own flavour. Belgravia drips money, with deep affordable armchairs. Shoreditch stays scrappy, with mismatched accent chairs. Peckham’s daring, and you’ll see patched seats that don’t match but somehow fit.

People make it what it is. Old boys sipping tea on a chair they won’t sell. The mix makes the market. I’ve paid cash with a grin and bundled armchairs into cabs. That’s retro life in the capital.

Let’s have it right, age is part of the charm. a chair’s part of your story. It holds arguments.

If you’re on the hunt, forget your catalogue orders. Take a vintage sofa, and make it your anchor.
