From Markets to Mansions: London’s Love for Vintage Sofas and Armchairs There’s something about vintage pieces that grabs me. My first memory of proper furniture is my grandad’s wingback chair. The arms were shiny from years of elbows, but it was part of us. In the days of smoky pubs and vintage accent chair jazz clubs, furniture meant something. You’d keep the same chair your whole life. It’s in the weight of the wood. I bartered for a sofa on Brick Lane one rainy morning.

The fabric and leather couches was stained and faded, but you can’t fake that kind of comfort. It’s carried me through late nights and lazy Sundays. You can tell the area by the chairs. Chelsea leans plush, with buttoned wingbacks. Brixton thrives on colour, with funky retro chairs. It’s the mix that makes it all work. The catalogue stuff has no soul. Armchairs with scars become part of your life. They’re not perfect, but neither are we. At the end of the day, an old funky accent chair means more than new gloss.

A chair should hold your nights. So next time you’re tempted by something new, stop and think of the markets. Choose a funky accent chair, and watch it age alongside you.
