Generally one would want a non-interfering product. Cheapest cable risers are paper towel tubes wrapped with packing tape and cut into inch tall sections. Can add a small V and all set Even paint them black first. Pretty good for junk at hand. other sorts are to make a tripod out of chopsticks cut down and tied to hold the tripod together. Various things around the home can do.
The most expensive are just 'show' pieces, to display ones ostentatiousness.
For the not very handy, the small wood blocks available are decent.
So nearly anything can hold a cable off the floor.
Or, if one has cables that are carefully shielded, no riser is needed. One cable i know of is the Power Cables from Pangea. They have no interaction with anything outside the cable sheath. The Pangea can be right next to interconnects etc and no problems. Only the molded platic ends of Pangea power cables have any electromagnetic emmisions.
So those paper towel tubes are my choice, painted black, with shiny packing tape wrapping.. the V notch finishes them off.
A high end version would have a layer of antistatic foam inside of the tube. Or perhaps a small crystal in each tube...
