Maybe these ? - https://www.niwa.co.nz/news/summer-series-4-beautiful-sea-shells-on-the-sea-shore

 

But it's also possible they are from any type of shell and simply shaped into a teardrop shell. Maybe from pearl shell.

I think they are simply carved Mother of Pearl shells.

Not worth a great deal.

I believe you are thinking of capiz shells but I think they are too thick for that.

 

I am inclined to go with Stawkas idea....they are just mother of pearl carved into that shape.
