Our best-selling design, this bracelet was inspired by Grace Kelly in Rear Window. In it she wears a bold gold bracelet with one dramatic charm, and John set out to recreate the look. On this version he added a 20mm cotton pearl to make it that much more special!
The initial coins are hand-pressed in a New England jewelry factory that has been making them since the original heyday of sororities in the 1950’s, hence the name. John rediscovered them over ten years ago, and they have since become our signature design, featured on Oprah’s O List and worn by thousands of fans nation-wide.
I purchased this bracelet in silver some years ago at the Union Square Market in NYC. Organizing my jewelry the other day, I came across this bracelet amongst my special pieces and said to myself, where did I get this? I’d like to have more! Then I noticed your John Wind tag on the bracelet. OMG And that’s when I found you again. So glad I did thank you!

Bonded with John Wind himself over this bracelet
This spring I had the pleasure of meeting John Wind at Grounds for Sculpture in New Jersey. He was selling his jewelry by the gift shop and I absolutely love jewelry and found myself drawn to his table. I was admiring the Sorority Gal Cotton Pearl Initial Bracelet when he asked if I was interested in anything and I mentioned this bracelet reminded me of a bracelet Grace Kelly wears if one of my favorite films Rear Window. I was drawn to it. He said without skipping a beat that the exact bracelet I just mentioned inspired him to create the Sorority Gal Cotton Pearl Initial Bracelet. To say our meeting was fate is a serious understatement. We connected and in my eyes share the same passion for fashion. I am now a proud owner of John Wind jewelry and look forward to being a lifelong customer. The best part of our meeting was when he told me his mother was a sculptor and one of her sculptures was at the grounds. That was extra special. Definitely recommend his jewelry and you should add to cart ASAP!

Sorority Gal Cotton Pearl Initial Bracelet
As soon as I saw this bracelet come across my facebook page I knew I had to have it. It reminded me of Grace Kelly's bracelet in Rear Window. So I went on the website, and amazingly the description even mentioned Grace Kelly. Well I got the bracelet, and I can attest that it is classy, timeless, and beautiful just like Grace Kelly. Love it!!

I have had this bracelet in silver for about 8 years. It looks just as beautiful as the day I bought it. Love this classic style!
A wardrobe staple and the perfect layering piece~ Customers love the contrast of the large coin on fine chain, as well as the whimsical addition of a 10mm cotton pearl.

I LOVE my new charm bracelet. It has a charm with a photo of each of my dogs. It is beautiful and I treasure it. Not only is the bracelet wonderful, but John sent me emails and helped me as he was creating. Truly a piece of art!

I absolutely love the sorority gal bracelet. The only thing is all my charms broke off, and the gold oxidized so looks like brass. I am still going to buy another one.

This one is for the real John Wind collector—Your initial and a 20mm cotton pearl hang from a dramatic, triple link cable chain. The bracelet is then clasped with a cool, oversized toggle and ring modeled on a vintage original.
Two-tone is the most popular variation, though we also offer classic gold and silver~

I have been wearing John Wind jewelry for over 20 years , and yes , I have some beautiful original vintage pieces. But the New sorority gal bracelet is gorgeous . I get asked “where did you get that “? Every time I wear it. It is a stunning piece that I will add to my collection. Thank you so much for another treasure ! 💖

I have just purchased by second bracelet. I wore the first one so much that the finish came off. Is there any way to restore my old bracelet. I really love this piece of jewelry and have given it as gifts.

I couldn't wait to receive this bracelet in gold! I purchased a John Wind initial bracelet years ago and it is so well loved. When I saw that he was making this bracelet with a pearl charm, I had to get it. Pearl is my birth stone so it's a perfect match for me. Can't wait to get another one!

A Note about Care! Because this item features actual cotton, it is best to keep it away from water, perfume, hairspray and other liquids. It will 'melt' if it gets wet~ so remove in the shower and while doing dishes. If you need more advice on how to care for any John Wind piece, please contact us! :)
After many years of enjoyment I had to replace the Cotton Pearl Charm. It’s my go to accessory.
Service was fast and efficient.
I look forward to many more years of wearing my Sorority Gal Cotton Pearl Initial Bracelet

A sparkle of joy (me) and envy (others)
The picture of these earrings on the website - although absolutely stunning - is an understatement compared to what these increasingly pieces look like in real life. I spent a lot of time at the Waldorf attending memorable events and these remind me of those special times while dressing up any outfit. I look forward to wearing them to my next formal event in December.

These earrings far exceeded my expectations. They’re beautiful! They’re so special to me bc my grandparents got married at the Waldorf so I feel like I’m carrying a little piece of them with me when I wear these earrings.
Our popular petite initial on a fine wire bangle, accented with an 8mm crystal disco ball. The perfect way to personalize a stacked wrist. And at $38, they make the perfect gift!
