Sorority Gal Cotton Pearl Initial Bracelet
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.
Materials Include:
- Oxidized sterling silver finished brass
- Gold-Plated finished brass
- 20mm Spun cotton dipped in pearl lacquer
- Lobster claw closure
- 8" bracelet
I have the sorority bracelet. it is beautiful an well made
My daughter purchased an initial bracelet for me. It was gorgeous. I purchased one for my sister. She lives it. I will be ordering again!!!!
The bracelet is beautiful and great quality. So glad I purchased it.
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!
This is the third Joh Wind I have purchased. I will be gifting this to a person who has”everything” and know she will love it.

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.
I love everything about this necklace (I purchased in silver). It is beautifully crafted and the compliments keep coming.
Really like the sorority gal pearl initial necklace but would like for it to be a bit smaller in size.
This was a present and they loved it. The pieces that I have , have alway been some of my favorites.
Super happybwith this necklace. I receive ao many compliments. Have bought it a few times for gifts!

They were absolutely beautiful!!
I use to work in retail and sold JW jewelry. It’s very good quality merchandise. I actually have matching pieces.
This was a perfect gift for a hard to buy for family member- she loved them. The purchase was easy and arrived sooner than anticipated. Also, the packaging was lovely.
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.
I bought these earrings and the lariat necklace at the same time. They look fantastic together. Amazing to own a piece of history.
Just love my earrings. They are so pretty on and I felt beautiful wearing them. Will cherish them always!!

I thought it was going to look and feel like a real crystal but it doesn't it looks like clear plastic not a crystal real crystal that you see color when light hits it. It looks cheap not what I expected. I love crystal and that's not a real crystal it's fake.
These bracelets exceeded expectations in beauty and definitely hit the right nostalgia notes, since the Plaza is part of my NYC history/experience. I have been wearing them every day since they arrived in my mailbox and have gotten a million compliments. PLUS, the team was so helpful and responsive. Makes me want to buy all the gorgeous jewelry they create.
I love the simplicity and the sparkle of these bracelets. I gave one to her friend and ordered two more pairs. I get compliments every time someone notices these elegant yet wearable-every-day bracelets
I love these bracelets. They are beautiful + knowing that they were once part of the famed Waldorf Astoria...just makes them all the more remarkable.
These bracelets are absolutely breathtaking! I am in love with their casual elegance which will enhance everything I own! The shipping was super fast too! Thank you for my very own piece of The Plaza, I will treasure them forever!

Beautiful

If you love browns and golds... You'll love it. If you love whimsy in a bracelet... You'll love it!
Thank you John for another fun piece of jewelry that can be a conversation starter!
