Perhaps no alcoholic beverage is more evocative of summer than rosé, a crisp, refreshing sip that pairs beautifully with sunny weather and good company.
Similarly, beaded jewelry is an ideal style for the season. And that’s what makes the latest partnership between John Hardy and Long Island, N.Y., vineyard Wölffer Estate a match made in sunshiny heaven.
In celebration of the Hamptons-based Wölffer Estate’s 10th anniversary of its iconic Summer in a Bottle rosé, John Hardy has introduced a limited-edition capsule of seven reimagined pieces from its signature Heishi, Pebble, and Colorblock collections. Their designs take inspiration from the colors and floral blooms pictured on Summer in a Bottle bottles.
The silver and 14k rose gold bracelets and necklaces feature arrangements of tiger’s eye, howlite, mother-of-pearl, and artisanal beads and enamel in various shades of pink, orange, brown, and white—complementing that delicious rosé hue. There are also necklaces with a pink freshwater pearl or diamond-accented gold pendant on a leather cord.
Twenty percent of the proceeds from sales of the Wölffer x John Hardy collection will be donated to the Parrish Art Museum, located in the Hamptons town of Water Mill.
“I’ve loved and lived in the Hamptons for most of my life and have watched with incredible admiration Wölffer Estate build what is arguably one of the most successful brands on the East End,” said John Hardy creative chairman Reed Krakoff in a statement. “Through passion and vision, the Wölffer team has built Summer in a Bottle rosé into a Hampton’s lifestyle, and we’re proud to help celebrate this 10-year milestone—all while helping to raise funds for the Parrish Art Museum.”
“As a former head jewelry designer, it was an honor when John Hardy approached us for this collaboration,” Wölffer Estate’s chief brand officer and co-owner Joey Wölffer said in a statement. “I couldn’t think of a better jewelry partner rooted in the same values as Wölffer Estate in artisanship, community, and sustainability.”
