From Markets to Mansions: London’s Love for Vintage Sofas and Armchairs There’s something about vintage pieces that grabs me. Growing up, there was a sofa in our house that had seen it all. It weren’t showroom-perfect, vintage accent chair but it was part of us. When the East End was full of voices, an armchair wasn’t just a seat. Chairs lived longer than flats. That history clings to vintage pieces. I dragged a velvet armchair home from Camden.

The legs were wobbling, accent chairs antique but I knew straight away it had something. That chair still sits in my flat. Furniture in London shifts with the postcode. Chelsea leans plush, with deep sofas. Brixton thrives on colour, with mismatched sofas. The contrast keeps it alive. Showroom sofas don’t talk back. Armchairs with scars last decades. Every creak is a memory. Truth be told, retro wins because it’s real.

An armchair should hug you back. Before you grab a soulless bargain, wander a street full of second-hand shops. Choose a funky accent chair, fabric and leather couches let it grow with you.
