Teardrop Plugs with Abalone
Tax included.
Gleaming contrast with organic depth, these golden teardrop plugs feature smooth double-flared edges and a central abalone shell inlay that shimmers with rich tones of purple, green, and blue. The elongated teardrop shape brings a sculptural elegance, enhancing the flow of the design and hugging the lobe with graceful intent. The warm brass frame adds a radiant glow, beautifully offsetting the iridescent shell and creating a finish that is both striking and refined.
Handcrafted for comfort and presence, the double-flare design ensures a secure, balanced fit while maintaining easy all-day wear. The natural patterning of each abalone shell adds a sense of individuality; no two are ever the same, making every piece a wearable original.
Abalone is traditionally associated with inner harmony, protection, and emotional clarity, connecting the wearer to the calming rhythm of the ocean. Paired with golden brass — a metal known for its strength, warmth, and timeless appeal, these plugs evoke a grounded beauty rooted in both nature and intention.
Perfect for those who value flow, detail, and energy in their jewellery, this design blends nature’s raw elegance with skilled craftsmanship in a way that feels both bold and fluid. A radiant statement with a soulful foundation.

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.
