Eileen Gray’s Côte d’Azur sanctuary, the villa “Tempe à Pailla” was imagined as a place of rest (tempe a païa: “the time to yawn” in Menton dialect). A synergy of modernism and nature, Gray built the villa’s terrace to ensure 360-degree, panoramic views of the town, mountains and sea. Combining our Substantial Wings hoops, Ville et Mer and Mini Ville et Mer ear cuffs; the Tempe à Pailla earring set references the sculptural elegance of Gray’s abode whilst setting the foundations of a considered earscape.
