A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Teardrop Plugs

These custom made 2″ teardrop plugs (ebony and pink ivory) were made by theBrown for homeinacoma… Teardrop plugs seem remarkably rare in modern times, even though I see them all the time on old sculptures.

    these are gorgeous, but they accually remind me of something i was wondering about;
    im seriously concidering an anti-tragus removal, and i was wondering if i could get some tearshaped jewelry that would fit after the fact. (flush to the removed cartilage)
    has anyone seen this? would it even work?

    I personally prefer the round plugs, but these really do make the ear look so… artistic? Completely different look. Looks awesome. 🙂
