Whale Teeth

The Tabua ring is inspired by the traditional culture of the Fijian people and the symbolism of tabua—sperm whale teeth, which played a significant role in their rituals and social life. In Fijian culture, tabua were considered sacred objects, used as symbols of power, respect, and agreements. Chiefs would publicly display sperm whale teeth during life cycle ceremonies such as weddings, births, and funerals, as well as during exchange rituals. They were also used for paying compensations and as symbolic gifts.
The Tabua ring captures the spirit of this ancient tradition, embodying the power and prestige associated with the tabua. The intricate design and shape of the ring reflect the strong connection of the Fijians to the sea and their deep cultural roots, with every element of the piece honoring their ancestors and important spiritual values.
