Indonesians revere the spiritual realm and produce a steady stream of offerings to their sacred gods and goddesses. From tiny homemade shrines to the most majestic statues and temples, you can find flowers, incense and elaborate crafts. The practice got me thinking about the little gifts I leave for my wife. We call them "just because" gifts because they come without an anniversary or holiday. But they may as well be called "personal offerings to my goddess." They've certainly brought me a fair share of good fortune.

These earrings feature smooth, rainbow-hued opal teardrops mounted in 14K gold vermeil and dotted with a halo of luminous seed pearls. The details of the setting are exquisite and include ornate filigree and granulation in the Bali-style. The French hooks loop upward from the bail, which is accented with a shimmering dollop of opal. A divinely-inspired gift.
