Grace Prince Held Absence No.3 Set of candle holders - UK, 2025, Edition of 10

About the Item

Cast bronze and polished stainless steel. Polished steel rods intersect with cast bronze elements, introducing the cast wood fragment to these kinetic candle holders. Deceptively robust, the pieces play with notions of structure, balance and form. The piece is part of Held Absence, Grace Prince’s largest furniture collection to date addressing a long-held fascination with absence and fragility. The pieces develop the designer’s free, gestural approach into six assemblages in bronze, steel and wood. Designed exclusively for Béton Brut, the works emerged from a period spent living in a traditional house just north of Kyoto. The collection is handmade to order in 12 weeks. Grace Prince (born in London, 1992) is a multidisciplinary designer based between Zürich, Milan and London. A graduate of Central Saint Martins, she worked as the assistant designer to Vincenzo De Cotiis before becoming a material researcher at ETH University design studio Material Gesture under Prof. Anne Holtrop. Prince was selected as an AD100 designer in 2023. Her largest collection to date comes hot off multiple group shows, Salone del Mobile and residencies at Perspective in Kyoto and Numeroventi in Florence, 2024. Prince’s furniture explores the harmonies and tensions inherent in assemblage. The process is a meticulous exercise in reduction and composition, with each element crafted by her hand or in close collaboration with artisans. The pieces are made to order. - H38.5 W28 D15cm - H17 W29 D7cm - H28 W22 D13cm

The pieces develop the designer’s free, gestural approach into six assemblages in bronze, steel and wood.

Hand-poured glass, polished stainless steel, metal and rubber. A pool of swirled hand-poured glass sits atop a dynamic, architectonic frame. Made by pouring molten glass directly from the kiln onto a metal plate, the cooler temperature triggers a rippling texture.

Grace Prince Held Absence No.1 Desk UK, 2025

The pieces develop the designer’s free, gestural approach into six assemblages in bronze, steel and wood.

Grace Prince Held Absence No.5 Low stool - UK, 2025 - AP 1, Edition of 3
Located in London, GB
Painted steam-bent wood, fibreglass and polished stainless steel. A dialogue between heft and poise is keenly felt in this low stool. Each piece retains a unique identity, fabricated from odd sections of steam-bent waste wood – a chance encounter of irreplaceable offcuts. Slim polished steel rods bisect at the base, mirroring the triad structure. The piece is part of Held Absence, Grace Prince’s largest furniture collection to date addressing a long-held fascination with absence and fragility.
