From Markets to Mansions: London’s Love for Vintage Sofas and Armchairs I’ve always had a soft spot for old furniture. The family armchair was covered in throws but still solid. It sagged in the middle and smelled faintly of tea, but it had heart. In the days of smoky pubs and jazz clubs, an armchair wasn’t just a seat. You’d keep the same chair your whole life. It’s in the weight of the wood. I rescued a battered armchair from outside a shop in Peckham.

Some would’ve laughed at the state of it, but the weight told me it was the real deal. That chair still sits in my flat. Every borough in London has its own taste. Mayfair goes glossy, armchairs vintage design with velvet comfortable armchairs. Brixton thrives on colour, with mismatched sofas. Every corner tells a different story. Mass-produced pieces fade in months. Vintage finds grow with you. They’re not perfect, but neither are we. Here’s the thing, an old funky accent chair means more than new gloss.

Furniture should live with you. Next time you’re thinking of flat-pack, go dig through a car boot. Choose a funky accent chair, and watch it age alongside you.
