Dennis Marquart for OX Denmarq Prop Bar Stool in Cork
Description
Designed by Dennis Marquart for Danish design house OX Denmarq, the Prop Bar Stool combines an industrial steel frame with the natural texture of cork. This example features a distinctive natural cork seat paired with a satin orange powder-coated frame, creating a bold yet restrained piece of Scandinavian furniture.
Originally known for its leather seat, the Prop's cork variation brings a different character to the design, with a durable textured surface that develops its own patina over time. The structurally simple frame features two parallel horizontal tubes with raised side bars that provide an integrated footrest.
In excellent vintage condition with minimal wear, this Danish designer bar stool is suited to kitchen islands, workshop benches, and bar tables. Available to view at the Fox & Wedge Torquay studio.
Danish Industrial Bar Stool by Dennis Marquart
The OX Denmarq Prop Bar Stool reflects Dennis Marquart's background in metalwork and furniture design, combining structural simplicity with carefully selected natural materials.
Marquart trained as a blacksmith before studying furniture design at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. His international experience, including time spent studying in Japan and China, is reflected in the restrained geometry and functional character of the Prop stool.
The satin orange powder-coated frame gives the piece a strong architectural presence, while the natural cork seat introduces warmth and texture. The combination makes this stool particularly effective in contemporary, industrial, Scandinavian, and design-led interiors.
