Founder / Prime Piece

James Hopwood is an Auckland-based stonemason and founder of Prime Piece, a sculptural stone furniture brand creating one-of-one plinths and tables handcrafted in New Zealand.

Working with carefully selected natural stones sourced from Italy, Spain and beyond, each piece is designed to celebrate the movement, texture and permanence of the material.

Drawing from years of hands-on experience in stone fabrication, his work explores the intersection of sculpture, furniture and interior presence.

Mint.

Picked up a marble table from James and it's honestly mint. Solid build, looks clean and just makes the lounge feel a bit sharper. Easy as dealing with him too. Cheers mate.

Beautiful marble board.

I bought this beautiful marble board. It is solid, stylish, and perfect for prep. Looks great on the bench and feels premium to use. What a great idea and product. Highly recommend!

Exceeded expectations.

From inception through to completion, James exceeded expectations. Communication was clear, design was exactly to order. James maximised the reclaimed stone into two beautiful bedside tables. Would use Prime Piece again.

Incredible craftsmanship.

Absolutely love my new marble side table from Prime Piece! The craftsmanship is incredible — the stone has such a unique natural pattern. Solid, beautifully finished, and even better in person than in the photos.
