In the middle of restoring this walnut table. Judging by the construction, I'd say Risom. Anyone with a catalog that can look for me?

What is it about the table that makes you think it might be by Jens Risom?
You can probably get a definitive answer from JensRisom.org:

The table looks more like Risom than the chairs do. Are they matched set? Any labels?

The chairs are Borge mogensen. I've worked on risom stuff before. Construction and materials are identical. Foil label has been removed unfortunately. I've finished the table. It appears to be walnut and mahogany

This table is not in the 1955 catalog. As Risom had (has) a long continuous design career, he has many pieces from the 60s and 70s of which I am not familiar. While there are similarities between Risom details and your table, other designers/manufacturers also used similar details.
Nice table whoever designed it. Two questions: 1) is that a solid walnut top? 2) what parts do you believe are mahogany?
