The Risom A-Chair by Jens Risom is a masterclass in refined comfort and sculptural simplicity. Designed in 1961, this iconic lounge chair is distinguished by its elegant graphic silhouette and signature rear profile, where a distinctive frame cradles the upholstered body. The balanced proportions and generous seat create an inviting place to unwind, while the timeless design transitions effortlessly between residential interiors, executive offices, hospitality spaces, and lounges. Available with either a solid wood base or a steel tube base in chromed or powder-coated finishes, this chair pairs enduring craftsmanship with versatile styling. A removable seat cushion with a feather-wrapped foam core enhances comfort and longevity, making this an enduring classic of Danish-American design.
