This vintage sofa Attributed to Jens Risom exemplifies the designer’s iconic Mid-Century Modern aesthetic, featuring sculptural angled arms, tapered wood legs, and well-balanced proportions.
Originally purchased in the 1950s, this sofa has remained in the same family since new. Over the decades, it has been reupholstered twice, reflecting thoughtful care and continued use rather than neglect. The current upholstery is intact but shows visible fading and interior fill compression, and reupholstery is recommended at this time.
The underlying frame is solid and structurally sound, offering an excellent foundation for restoration. This piece is best suited for a buyer planning to reupholster to their own specifications—an ideal opportunity for designers, collectors, or restorers seeking an authentic Jens Risom sofa with documented history and strong original form.
Priced to reflect its current condition and restoration needs.
Originally purchased in the 1950s, this sofa has remained in the same family and has been professionally reupholstered twice over the decades. While the original tag is no longer present, the quality of construction, materials, and design clearly reflect Jens Risom’s unmistakable hand and commitment to modern craftsmanship.
