Edward Prince offers the discerning design community craftsman made furniture. Furniture that is conceived with the highest integrity for residential and commercial settings. I have designed for the Prime Minister of New Zealand, major corporate institutions and private individuals looking for something special. My furniture is for those of us who are conscious of our environment and desire products whose stories are meaningful in both their creation and stories. My furniture is not merely a branded status symbol – it represents a slice of history, inspired by a sense of adventure, a love for fine materials, detail and craftsmanship.
I pride myself in aiming to perform a harmonious blend of artistry and craftsmanship. The products are designed with functionality in mind, enhanced by the character and personality of the materials and finishes used forms and shapes used. The designs blend the rich natural colours and stunning grains of some of the world’s timbers to the lustre, crispness and texture of stone, metal or glass.
I believe the very core of an outstanding design is its associations and sensory appeal; how does the piece connect with your eyes, the hands, the ear, memory, even your soul? Attending to these details leads us through the creative design process and ultimately helping define the attributes of the furniture. They not only look good – they also feel good. I invite you to browse through the current collections being produced and some of made over the years. Become involved in the exciting process of commissioning and owning unique bespoke quality furniture. Furniture that you that dream of living with.

Things men have made with awakened hands and put soft life into
are awake through the years with transferred touch
and go on glowing for long years.
And for this reason, some old things are lovely warm
still with the life of forgotten men who made them.
