His father, Robert Pierini, uncle and aunt, Alain and Marysa Begou, and his cousin, Xavier Carrère, are among France's most famous glass artists, credited with bringing blown glass work back to the fore in the period between 1980 to 2000. Antoine's artistic vision was enriched and refined through his travels and encounters with the greatest names in glass, including Dale Chihuly, Lino Tagliapietra, Davide Salvadore, Martin Janecky, Preston Singletary, Raven Skyriver, and Kelly O'Dell. His art and his passion for glass is expressed by imagining works that are fascinating as much for their colours as for their shapes, taking inspiration from nature.
