Risom Side Chair

The first pieces conceived for and manufactured by Knoll, Jens Risom's furniture was originally constructed of simple maple frames and discarded parachute webbing due to wartime material restrictions. Described as good, honest furniture design, the collection helped establish Knoll as an early provider of modern design in America.
