Welcome to Icevana. Headquartered in the vibrant heart of San Francisco and anchored by our wholly-owned manufacturing facility in Guangzhou, China, we bring together a global design vision and uncompromising artisanal craftsmanship.
Twenty years of unrivaled craftsmanship
At the core of our brand is a dedicated team of master jewelers with a 20-year history of manufacturing excellence. Our Guangzhou facility is not just a factory; it is a workshop where decades of traditional artistry meet modern precision.
Every link, every hand-set prong and every polished surface is executed by experienced artisans who have spent their lives perfecting the art of jewelry making. Nothing is rushed, and nothing leaves our hands until it meets the standard our masters set for themselves.
Signature collections
While our masters have the expertise to craft an endless variety of fine jewelry, our signature collections celebrate bold, timeless elegance. We specialize in premium Cuban link chains and bracelets, radiant tennis chains and bracelets, and statement stud earrings that capture the eye and stand the test of time.
Every stone we set is VVS1 moissanite. Our chains and bracelets are crafted on a brass base and finished in 14K gold or platinum plating, and our stud earrings are made in S925 sterling silver, finished in 14K gold or white gold.
Bespoke work for clients worldwide
Beyond our catalog, we offer comprehensive bespoke services to clients around the world. Whether you are seeking a one-of-a-kind custom piece or looking to develop a unique jewelry line of your own, our production capabilities can bring your exact vision to life.

Guangzhou
Our Own Factory
Our wholly-owned manufacturing facility in Guangzhou, China, is a workshop where decades of traditional artistry meet modern precision. A team of master jewelers with a 20-year history of manufacturing excellence makes every piece under one roof, from rubber mold to final polish.
The Materials
VVS1 Moissanite, Hand-Set and Hand-Polished
Every stone we set is VVS1 moissanite. Our chains and bracelets are crafted on a brass base with 14K gold or platinum plating, and our stud earrings are made in S925 sterling silver with 14K gold or white gold plating, each piece hand-set and hand-polished.
Inside our Guangzhou factory
From model to masterpiece
Every piece moves through six stages in our own factory, guided by master jewelers at each one.
-
Step 1
Prototyping & Rubber Molding
Every design begins as a master model. Once the prototype is perfected, it is pressed into rubber and vulcanized to form a mold that captures every link, edge and stone seat, so each piece made from it matches the original exactly.
-
Step 2
Wax Injection
Molten wax is injected into the rubber mold to create precise wax replicas of the design. Each wax is inspected and refined under magnification, because any flaw in the wax would carry through to the finished metal.
-
Step 3
Filing & Assembly
The raw metal components are filed, refined and assembled by hand. Links are joined, clasps are fitted and every surface is prepared so the piece sits, moves and closes exactly as designed.
-
Step 4
Stone Setting
Working under magnification, our setters seat every VVS1 moissanite by hand and secure it with tiny metal prongs, checking that each stone sits level and tight. It is the most painstaking stage of all, and the one that gives each piece its fire.
-
Step 5
Final Polishing & Cleaning
Each piece is polished on the wheel to bring out a bright, even finish, then cleaned to remove every trace of polishing compound so the metal gleams and the stones return as much light as possible.
-
Step 6
QC & Packaging
Before anything leaves the factory, our QC team inspects every piece: stones, settings, clasps and finish. Approved pieces are then packed carefully for the journey to you.
