Teardrop Abalone Ear Saddles
Tax included.
Radiant and bold, the Teardrop Abalone Ear Saddles bring natural beauty to stretched ears in a sculptural, teardrop-shaped design. At their centre lies luminous Abalone shell, glowing with shifting shades of purple, blue, and green, colours that echo the mystery and depth of the ocean.
Known as a symbol of protection, intuition, and emotional balance, Abalone has been treasured for centuries as both an adornment and a talisman. Set within the smooth curves of the teardrop saddle, it creates a piece that feels at once organic and refined, modern yet timeless.
Crafted for stretched ears from 16mm and above, these saddles are statement jewellery that shimmer with movement and light; perfect for those who want their collection to carry the spirit of the sea and the power of transformation.

Jewellery with a story
Founded in London in 1998, Tribu was built on one simple idea: jewellery should mean something. Every piece we create is designed to express individuality, not trends - crafted for people who choose their own path and wear it with confidence.
From tribal roots to modern expression
Our early collections helped pioneer tribal-inspired jewellery with a modern edge. Over the years, that influence has evolved into designs shaped by sacred geometry, spirituality, yoga culture and urban gypsy style - blending heritage with contemporary form.
Designed to stand apart
We work with a wide mix of materials, organic woods, stones and shells combined with silver, gold and metals, pushing boundaries while staying true to our roots. Tribu exists to explore what jewellery can be, not what it’s expected to be.
