London’s Retro Revival: Why Vintage Armchairs and Sofas Still Rule I’ve always had a soft spot for old furniture. My first memory of proper furniture is my grandad’s wingback chair. It weren’t showroom-perfect, but it had heart. When London was swinging, you didn’t buy throwaway chairs. You’d go second-hand instead of brand new. That history clings to vintage pieces. I dragged a velvet unique armchair home from Camden. Some would’ve laughed at the state of it, but you can’t fake that kind of comfort.

Friends always fight to sit in it. Each district carries its own vibe. Belgravia keeps it polished, with velvet armchairs. Shoreditch stays messy, with bold fabrics. London wouldn’t be London without the variety. Modern flat-pack doesn’t hold a candle. Retro pieces become part of your life. They’re not perfect, but neither are we. Truth be told, sofa funky an old funky accent chair means more than new gloss. Your seat should outlast the years.

Before you grab a soulless bargain, wander a street full of second-hand shops. Pick up a retro armchair, and let it grow with you.
