While no maker's tags or markings remain, the high-quality construction—sprung seats, sturdy period frames, and solid ash or beech wood legs—strongly suggests Risom's signature design style and craftsmanship.

The sculptural and curvaceous seat backs have been recently reupholstered in a beautiful white woven linen blend featuring subtle knubby texture with sea green and light blue accent threads - think California mid century beach bungalow vibes. The fabric is in excellent condition with minimal signs of use but would benefit from a professional cleaning to refresh.

The original blonde wood legs remain in their authentic vintage finish, showing signs of light scuffs, wear, and patina consistent with age—adding true character and charm to the pair.

Whether styled in a living room, bedroom, or reading nook, these timeless chairs bring warmth, texture, and iconic mid-century design to any interior. See less
