R.
T. Pearce was born into a working class family in Birmingham, England
in 1956. At the young age of 14, Pearce began working as a jewelry
apprentice. Learning to fashion three-dimensional designs in clay,
he quickly mastered the techniques necessary to manufacture the designs
in metal.
His work reveals influences from the Pre-Raphaelitest, as well as
from the Art Nouveau and Art Deco movements. His devotion to nature
naturally led him to incorporate the organic forms that fascinated
Art Nouveau artists and architects, and he borrows liberally from
Art Deco's use of marble and ivory, known as chryselephantine.
