Dennis Marquart for OX Denmarq 'Prop' Bar Stool in Cork
Description
This Prop stool was designed by Dennis Marquart for the Danish design house OX Denmarq, an industrial silhouette paired with natural materials.
Marquart trained as a blacksmith before studying furniture design at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, and time spent studying in Japan and China shows in the stool's restraint: a precise, structurally simple form rather than anything decorative. The Prop is usually seen with a leather seat; this example instead uses a natural cork top, a durable, textured material that wears differently to leather over time. The frame is finished in a satin orange powder coat. The base is built from two parallel horizontal tubes, with intersecting raised side bars doubling as a footrest.
Excellent vintage condition. The powder-coated frame is structurally sound and free of notable chips, and the cork seat shows genuine texture with very minimal wear.
Dimensions: 41cm wide, 41cm deep, 70cm high.
Suited to a kitchen island, workshop bench or bar table. Available to view in our Torquay studio.
