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. The perfect monogram gift!
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.

Beautiful in silver...and a bargain at Wise Jewelry in Kenansville NC: just 5 bucks for the coin (25 for the necklace).

Sorority Gal Cotton Pearl Initial Necklace
When I received my necklace I was really disappointed because the way it was packaged. It took me 35 minutes to untangle the necklace and I felt like it should have been packaged better. I love my necklace.

Really like the sorority gal pearl initial necklace but would like for it to be a bit smaller in size.

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 recently purchased the collectors sorority gal bracelet with the pearl. The bracelet is larger and really makes a statement. I got it in gold, as I already have a sorority gal bracelet in silver.
I also purchased the toggle sorority gal necklace to go with it and added the pearl to that. I wear the two pieces together or separately. Absolutely love them both.

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! :)
I recently purchased a sorority gal, toggle necklace, and I added one of the pearl charms to it! That’s the John Wind signature and I love it!!

A bolder way to wear your initial~ The Front toggle closure and hand-antiqued double cable chain add an artisan vibe to a classic piece.

I was originally introduced to John Wind jewelry, when my best girlfriend gave me a silver sorority gal bracelet years ago.
I recently purchased the gold toggle sorority gal initial necklace and added the pearl to it. I also got the collector’s gold toggle sorority gal initial pearl bracelet, to go with the necklace. I couldn’t be more thrilled with my new jewelry!! Thank you John Wind for being willing to make exactly what I wanted!

Togel Sorority Gal Initial Necklace
Bought this in two tone. Picture doesn’t do it justice. Beautiful memory of a time passed. Packaging beautiful as well.
Pure artistry.
Vintage chandelier crystals from New York’s legendary Waldorf Astoria Hotel, now reinvented as modern jewels. These earrings feature matched crystals, suspended from an Art Deco-inspired construction.
These crystals are from a vintage chandelier and have illuminated many celebrations and milestones over the years. While we select each carefully, there may be gentle signs of age on the surface and edges of some crystals. This is a sign of authenticity and part of the historic nature of the project.

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.

Love them!
I bought these earrings and the lariat necklace at the same time. They look fantastic together. Amazing to own a piece of history.
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!
Product Details:
Gold, silver, two-tone or rose gold-plated brass bangle and initial medallion
I bought this as a birthday gift for a good friend. The 2 tone was very pretty and her initial letter looked great. Perfect pieces to give as gifts or buy for yourself!

Swanky and nostalgic -- like the Waldorf
When I was a little girl we would go to the Waldorf for tea or luncheon if you got good grades, or did something exceptionally well, such a treat! This beautiful piece of history that lays elegantly around your neck is amazing, absolutely amazing! The charm with my initial, the placement of the crystal and the delicate chain with its toggle clasp make you feel that you are getting ready for tea or luncheon in that beautiful hotel once again. I have worn it with a dress at dinner and with a t-shirt and jeans for drinks on the water, and received many compliments in the times that I have worn it out. Thank you John Wind!

Stunning!
I have wanted an initial piece for awhile now and I was waiting for the right one to come along. Well, this is it! Unique, beautifully crafted, and the joy of knowing a bit of the Waldorf is hanging around my neck, what could be better. Thank you, John, for a gorgeous addition to my collection. Once we return to.live events, the season will be even brighter with this around my neck.

Pearls with a twist... Our alligator clasp adds an unexpected surprise to classic baroque pearls. Modeled on a vintage original, the clasp is cast and plated by artisan workshops in Rhode Island.
The pearls are imported, and we do all the final assembly in-house.
Love anything that has a gator on it, especially with pearls! Is a beautiful bracelet and have the matching necklace and earrings. Unfortunately, I cannot keep this clasp closed and have dropped the bracelet several times to where I cannot wear it for fear of losing it.

Custom charm bracelet for graduation. The charm bracelet was beautiful, better than a thought. I can’t wait to give it to her. I have serval pieces myself. I may need to add a charm bracelet to my collection.
I’m so in love with my new charm bracelet. The process to order it was so easy and they designed exactly what I wanted with no trouble at all. Very happy with this piece that I will cherish for a lifetime.
