Jens Risom Collection

Jens Risom was one of Knoll's earliest and most important designers, producing some of the company's first furniture in the 1940s using webbed cotton or canvas seating over wood frames — a genuinely different material approach from the metal and molded-plastic pieces more commonly associated with mid-century modern design, and an early example of wartime material scarcity shaping design innovation.

Alteriors is an authorized Knoll dealer, carrying authentic Risom-designed furniture for Canadian homes and design projects that want a warmer, more material-honest thread of mid-century design alongside Knoll's better-known metal and molded pieces. Every piece is genuine Knoll manufacturing.

Our team can help confirm current availability and finish options. Select Risom furniture is on display in our Toronto showroom, worth seeing in person to appreciate the wood and webbing construction up close. We ship authentic Jens Risom designs across Canada for residential and commercial projects.
