Striking, sculptural, and deceptively simple - these handcrafted spike earrings are designed to make a bold impression. Cast in solid 925 sterling silver and polished to a mirror finish, each piece is a testament to skilled silversmithing and Tribu’s decades-long commitment to alternative design with a story.

The design features a clever two-part structure: a short stud enters from the front of your piercing, while the elongated tapered back piece curves dramatically behind the earlobe. Connected by a discreet silver pin, the earring creates the seamless illusion of a single, continuous spike piercing through your ear - adding a dramatic and tribal-inspired twist to any look.

Sleek and expressive, these earrings offer a striking silhouette with an avant-garde edge. Though made from solid silver, they remain comfortable for regular wear. A signature Tribu design, perfected over years, for those who move against the grain.

A Story That Spikes Through Time

This iconic design traces its roots back to Tribu’s beginnings almost 30 years ago. Our earliest creations were wooden tribal spikes, handcrafted in Camden and tipped with silver to fuse natural and noble materials.

The silver tips sparked a movement, clients loved the contrast, and so we pushed the craft further. What began as an accent evolved into an all-silver spike, marking a new chapter in durability, design, and detail.

Originally made in 40mm and 60mm versions, rising demand for something bolder led us to create the extra-long 90mm spike, now our signature piece. Precision-cast and finished by hand, it requires highly skilled silversmiths and represents the very soul of Tribu: raw, refined, and relentlessly expressive.
