My world has always been the shop floor, the showroom, the warehouse. In the showrooms of Grosvenor, folk are not merely choosing somewhere to park themselves. I’ve seen families walk in, and they’re all searching for the same thing. A velvet seat with history, gives them that. I remember selling a Chesterfield to a gentleman from St John’s Wood, and the sofa aged but never gave way. This is why old beats new.

They fall for retro sitting room fashion too quickly, but sooner or later they return. Mass production doesn’t care, whereas retro lives on. Taste splits by borough. Hampstead seeks calm, with buttoned wingbacks. Dalston experimental, with funky fabrics. That’s what keeps us alive. Let me put it plainly, accent chairs outlive their buyers. Glossy showrooms don’t sell that. I still knock on the wood for weight, and chair unique the difference is clear. History sits with you. If you’re thinking quick buy, stop.

Bring home something with story, and watch it age gracefully.
