This side chair designed by Jens Risom is in very good vintage condition with new foam and upholstery. It would be an excellent “playmate” for the “Playboy” chair we also have available. 🙂

There is one small break in the caning on the back (see detail image).

The July, 1961, issue of Playboy Magazine featured six of the days’ finest modern designers, among them Jens Risom and this is the chair Mr. Risom chose to pose with…. well….not this particular chair, but…..you know. This example of the Risom C140 is in very good vintage condition and has had the seat reupholstered with new foam and a fabric similar in color to that of the chair with which Jens posed.
