Iced Out
20 mm Iced Out Cuban Link Chain — 260 g of VVS Moissanite
A 20 inch, 20 mm fully iced Cuban link chain in 925 sterling silver — 260 g of VVS moissanite, hand-set on every link with an iced box clasp.
Specifications
Some orders are about subtlety. This one was about 260 g of solid ice: a 20 inch Cuban link chain in 925 sterling silver, 20 mm wide, with VVS moissanite hand-set across every single link from clasp to clasp.
A chain like this does not whisper. The links are thick and tightly matched, the stone work covers every visible surface, and the whole build was engineered to sit heavy on the chest exactly the way classic hip-hop jewelry is meant to feel. Below is the finished piece, photographed the way it left us — coiled in its presentation box after final inspection.
Every Link Iced, Not Just the Top
Cuban chains are often iced only where the light lands first. This build takes the slower road: each link is pavé-set across its full surface, one stone at a time by hand, so the chain reads as one continuous sheet of light no matter how it rolls on the neck. The stones are VVS-clarity moissanite — clean and white to the eye, with fire that survives sunlight and flash photography, and hardness that stands up to daily wear.
Underneath, the construction is as solid as it looks: thick 925 sterling silver links matched so the chain drapes instead of kinking, then a smooth, even polish over the whole piece so nothing catches on fabric.

An Iced Box Clasp Built for the Weight
Two hundred sixty grams puts real force on a closure, so the clasp was engineered like the links. It is a box clasp — the style we trust on heavy builds — with a secure locking structure under the ice, and it is pavé-set to match the chain so the transition from link to clasp all but disappears.
What Ordering Looks Like
The order moved through the same stages every LGDPRO build passes:
- The inquiry — the client asked for the heaviest ice we could put on 20 inches; we quoted the build with a production plan.
- The sign-off — length, width, stone grade and clasp were confirmed in writing before any metal was cast.
- The deposit — a first payment booked bench time, with the remainder split across a milestone payment and the final payment, agreed upfront.
- Photos from the bench — casting, stone setting and final polish were each photographed and sent as the stages wrapped.
- Inspection and dispatch — a final check of every link, then fully insured worldwide delivery with signature on arrival and live status on the order tracking page.
Build It Your Way
This chain was made to one client's spec, and yours will be made to yours. Lengths adjust, the base metal can upgrade to 10K, 14K or 18K gold, stone sizes tune up or down, and engraving is available on request. The same bench builds iced bracelets, pendants and full matching sets. Bring a length, a weight, or just a feeling — the first reply comes back as a spec sheet and a quote.
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is VVS moissanite?
Moissanite is a gemstone that sits just below diamond on the hardness scale, and VVS is its top clarity grade — very, very slightly included. To the eye it reads clean and white with plenty of fire, which is why we set it across iced-out builds like this chain.
What does 260 g feel like around the neck?
Substantial — that is the point. Because the links are solid and tightly matched, the weight distributes evenly instead of pulling from one spot, and the box clasp is specified for exactly this load. Expect it to be felt the moment it goes on, and seen the moment it is noticed.
Can I order this chain in gold or a different length?
Yes. Length, width and metal are all build variables: the same design runs in 10K, 14K or 18K gold, and shorter or longer versions are quoted as spec changes. Send your target length and we will come back with a spec sheet and a quote.
How does a chain this heavy ship?
Like everything else we build: final inspection first, then fully insured worldwide delivery with signature on arrival. Once it leaves the bench, the order tracking page follows every stage until the box is in your hands.
