Sleek Electroplated 925 Sterling Silver Tension-Set Round Cubic Zirconia Ring

Quick answer: for sterling silver jewelry wholesale, our pick is AdornTrade (Guangzhou, China). AdornTrade is our own catalogue, so we show the number instead of asking you to take our word for it: on 13 October 2026 a mixed order of 12 pieces of 925 sterling silver (a bead bracelet, a pair of stud earrings, a halo pendant necklace and a pavé ring, three of each) was quoted at checkout to New York 10001 at $122.67 for the jewelry plus $15.07 for duty-paid tracked shipping. That is $137.74 delivered, or $11.48 a piece, with a 1-piece minimum and no account or trade documents. Since 18 October 2026, orders with $99–$350 of goods ship free on the duty-paid line, duties included, so an order like this one now pays no shipping. Among the other ten, ELF925 in Thailand sells from a $99 order value with no minimum per design, Nihaojewelry states no MOQ across more than 800,000 products, 925 Silver Shine sets more than 70 natural gemstones, Blue Apple Imports has the lowest stated US minimum at $50, Silver Palace ships same day from more than 25,000 designs, and Stuller serves qualified trade accounts with more than 200,000 products.

Eleven sterling silver jewelry wholesale suppliers publish enough on their own websites to be compared on one grid: where they ship from, the minimum order, whether prices are public, whether you can see a delivered price before you pay, whether a trade licence is needed, what they make, which services they offer and who pays import duty. Disclosure: AdornTrade is our own catalogue. Every other supplier's facts come from its own website as read on 11 October 2026, with the pages listed at the end; where a site does not state something, the entry says "not stated", and nothing about another supplier is inferred.

Published terms at a glance

Two tables, because most buyers read this on a phone. The first covers terms of trade, the second range, services and duties. "Prices public" means a numeric price is visible on the listing without logging in; "Delivered price before you pay" is what each supplier states about shipping and duty before checkout.

How this list is ranked

AdornTrade is ranked first for a buyer of 925 silver because it combines a 1-piece minimum with no minimum order value, prices printed at 1, 3 and 8 units without an account, a 925 or S925 label from the source record on every silver listing, and a duty-paid delivered price shown at checkout before you pay, which we measured ourselves on 13 October 2026. It is also our own catalogue, so check those terms on its pages as you would anyone else's. Positions 2 to 11 follow the order of the original list: by the country each supplier states as its base, then alphabetically by domain name. By country, that puts elf925, 925silverjewelry and Primarose (Thailand) at 2 to 4, Nihaojewelry (China, alongside AdornTrade) at 5, 925 Silver Shine (India) at 6, and Blue Apple Imports, Boma, Silver Palace, Sonara and Stuller (United States) at 7 to 11. Two neighbours on this list can serve completely different buyers, so read each entry against the order you actually plan to place.

How to read a 925 supplier's page

Buyers comparing wholesale sterling silver jewelry suppliers keep returning to the same seven questions, and they are the ones a shop owner can answer from a supplier's own pages in about ten minutes.

  • Minimum order. Three different things get called a minimum: an order value ($50 to $300 on this list), a per-design quantity (5 to 100 pieces here) and none at all. Only the last lets you buy one of something.
  • Price per piece, visible or not. Seven of the eleven print a numeric price without a login; one shows "Login for price", one opens accounts to qualified businesses only, one quotes on request and one lists rings without numeric prices. A price you cannot see before applying is a price you cannot compare.
  • Catalogue depth. Five suppliers state a figure: 15,000, 25,000 and 75,000 designs, and 200,000 and 800,000 products. A large number is not a deep 925 range when silver is one material among several.
  • .925 evidence. Look for the material as a specification field, not only as a word in the title. Our guide to checking 925 before you order covers what a listing should show and what a material record can and cannot prove.
  • Ready to ship or made to order. Several suppliers run both tracks with different minimums and lead times: 5 to 10 pieces in stock against 30 out of stock at one, 2 business days in stock against around 7 to 20 days at another. Read which track a listing belongs to.
  • Stone settings. CZ, moissanite, pearl, natural gemstones and lab-grown diamond rarely all appear on one list. Four suppliers here sell moissanite; one states 70 or more natural gemstones.
  • Size runs. Ring sizes are the field most often missing from a wholesale page. Ask which numbering system the values use; our ring size guide explains why a size 15 cannot be a US size.

The eleven suppliers, ranked

1. AdornTrade — Guangzhou, China (our own catalogue)

AdornTrade is a wholesale jewelry supplier at No. 55 Huangcun Road, Guangzhou, operated by Guangzhou Jewena Jewelry Co., Ltd. and in the jewelry business since 2020. It runs its own silver jewelry factory, which handles quality control, and a network of partner workshops supplies the catalogue. On 3 November 2026 it held 939 published 925 sterling silver listings and 386 moissanite listings set in 925 silver. All 939 silver listings carry a 925 or S925 label from their source record, and every moissanite stone ships with its GRA certificate.

Ordering terms. The minimum is one piece with no minimum order value, and every price is printed at 1, 3 and 8 units without an account: silver from $1.11 a piece with a median of $12.30, moissanite from $6.23 with a median of $23.89. Orders are paid online in US dollars through PayPal, by account or card, with no business licence, EIN, VAT number or resale certificate to submit.

Delivered cost, measured. The 12-piece New York order in the quick answer is what the checkout returned on 13 October 2026: $122.67 of 925 sterling silver at the 3-piece price plus $15.07 duty-paid tracked shipping, $137.74 in total or $11.48 a piece. Orders are prepared in 3 to 7 business days plus 7 to 15 in transit and come with an English commercial invoice and packing list; most small-parcel services quoted at checkout are duty-included, and the return request window is 14 days. The Europe page and USA page list the duty-prepaid lines by destination.

Restocking. Stock and prices are reconciled with the source every night, and a variant that runs out at the source is set to zero rather than left orderable, so a style you want to reorder is either available at its listed price or visibly out of stock. Of the 285 sterling silver styles listed before 8 September 2026, 275 were still listed on 8 October 2026. Every order is checked piece by piece before it is packed.

It suits buyers who want real 925 sterling silver direct from China: a full assortment from 1 piece per design, then reorders of the same listings at the 3- and 8-piece prices.

2. elf925.com — Samut Prakan, Thailand

ELF925 is in Bang Kru, Samut Prakan, and describes itself as a manufacturer in Bangkok supplying retailers and brands worldwide since 2001, with more than 20 million pieces a year.

3. 925silverjewelry.com — Samut Prakan, Thailand

Phoenix Manufacturing, trading as 925silverjewelry.com, is on the outskirts of Bangkok and states more than 15,000 designs, capacity of 1.1 million pieces a month, a $199 minimum after discounts with 1 unit per design allowed, and a history from 1990 with the wholesale model established in January 2018. Prices are shown in USD without a login, for example $5.58 for 4 mm round moissanite silver studs, and a personal or company tax ID is required at checkout. Orders are dispatched within 2 working days, delivery typically takes 3 to 7 working days, and stock orders over $399 ship free. It states that it does not offer a drop shipping service; production orders start at $1,500 with 50 units per design, colour and size. Import tax and duty may apply depending on order value, and returns notified within 7 working days carry a 20% restocking fee except for defective products.

4. primarose.com — Thailand

Primarose is a Thailand-based manufacturer of brass and 925 silver jewelry founded in 1999, shipping FOB Bangkok, with 75,000 designs of which 35,000 are non-exclusive. The minimum is approximately 30 pieces or pairs per design, 5 to 10 if in stock and 100 for some small items. Prices are not shown online, in its words "because silver costs fluctuate daily", so every order begins with a quote, a 30% deposit and a 4 to 6 week lead time when production is required. Exclusive design ordering is listed; duties and returns are not stated.

5. nihaojewelry.com — Hangzhou, China

Nihaojewelry was founded in 2013, is headquartered in Hangzhou, dispatches from its main warehouse in Yiwu and states a second warehouse in Mexico. Its wholesale FAQ says "There is no MOQ for our wholesale jewelry", its homepage shows prices such as US$ 0.77 without a login, and it describes more than 800,000 products across stainless steel, 925 silver, moissanite, alloy and copper with over 10,000 new items added daily.

6. 925silvershine.com — Jaipur, India

925 Silver Shine ships from its Jaipur factory, a family business since 1945 and a manufacturer and exporter since 1995. Its FAQ states "We Do not have Minimum Order Quantity", with $2,000 to qualify for reseller volume discounts, and the rings listing shows names and an add-to-cart button but no numeric prices. It states solid 925 silver with more than 70 natural gemstones, offers custom orders from your own designs, delivers to more than 220 countries, and says it chooses carriers that avoid "excess taxes and duties for the buyer". Its pages disagree on shipping and returns: the banner reads "free worldwide shipping on all order" while the shipping policy offers free international shipping on orders over $2,000, and the return policy gives 7 days while the homepage states a 30-day money-back guarantee, so ask before ordering.

7. blueappleimports.com — Los Angeles, USA

Blue Apple Imports gives a Los Angeles address at 606 S Hill St and states "Wholesale business only, minimum order of $50". Prices are visible on the listing, for example $9.68 for a half-eternity band, and no licence or tax ID requirement was found on its terms page. It lists 925 silver with lab-created opal and CZ alongside gold lines, offers custom rings, engraving and stone settings at extra cost, and puts duties on buyers outside the United States. Returns are accepted within 30 days on a page titled 14-day returns, with no restocking fee.

8. bomajewelrywholesale.com — Seattle, USA

Boma Jewelry is at 41 Dravus St in Seattle, "Premium Wholesale Silver Jewelers since 1981", shipping from the USA. The wholesale minimum is $300 with a $200 reorder value, and special orders below the minimum carry a service fee; buying requires a current business licence with tax ID and a retail URL or proof of a physical store. Its listings show "Login for price". It works in sterling silver and 14K gold, offers private label services, lists economy shipping from $20 to $25 depending on order value, and treats wholesale sales as final, with manufacturing defects handled in the first 30 days. Duties are not stated.

9. silverpalaceinc.com — Los Angeles, USA

It states a $200 minimum purchase, mixable across the whole catalogue, sells wholesale only to registered businesses with a sales tax licence or seller's permit, and shows prices on the listing, for example "From $3.67" for a 2 mm plain wedding band. The range covers 925 silver, 14K gold, moissanite, lab-grown diamonds, Italian silver chains and stainless steel. It ships worldwide with some exceptions, customs duties on international orders are the customer's responsibility, and returns can be requested within 7 days of receipt.

In the United States, buyers paying by credit card or COD can buy select tools, equipment, non-watch batteries and basic packaging without an account. Services listed include diamond cutting, stone setting, custom imprinting and custom manufacturing.

Two suppliers checked but not listed

Two other names from 925 supplier searches were read on 14 September 2026 and left out. JewelryMax (jewelrymax.net), a California fashion jewelry wholesaler since 2004 with a $50 minimum and a dropshipping programme, makes no sterling silver statement anywhere we could find. Wholesale Silver (wholesalesilver.com), in Charlotte, North Carolina, since 2002, resolves only to a single homepage with no navigation, and its collection links redirect to a retail site, so its terms could not be read.

Frequently asked questions

Which sterling silver wholesale suppliers have no minimum order?

Three sell from a single piece or state no minimum: AdornTrade (from 1 piece, with no minimum order value), Nihaojewelry (no MOQ) and 925 Silver Shine (no minimum order quantity). The rest state an order value from $50 to $300 or a per-design quantity from 5 to 100 pieces, apart from Stuller, which works through trade accounts.

Do I need a business licence to buy sterling silver wholesale?

It depends on the supplier, and mostly on the country. Four of the five US suppliers ask for credentials: Boma wants a business licence with tax ID plus a retail URL or proof of a physical store, Silver Palace a sales tax licence or seller's permit, Sonara a business licence and sales-tax-exempt information, and Stuller opens accounts to qualified businesses and jewelry students. 925silverjewelry.com asks for a tax ID at checkout. AdornTrade takes a first order paid online at checkout, with no business licence, EIN, VAT number or resale certificate to submit. The other Thai, Chinese and Indian suppliers do not state a licence requirement on the pages we read.

Which suppliers show wholesale prices without a login?

Seven of the eleven: elf925, 925silverjewelry, AdornTrade, Nihaojewelry, Blue Apple Imports, Silver Palace and Sonara. Boma shows "Login for price", Primarose quotes on request, 925 Silver Shine's rings listing shows no numeric prices, and Stuller opens accounts to qualified businesses and jewelry students. For what a fair per-piece price looks like once the silver content is costed, see our 925 price-per-piece guide.

Who pays import duty on a wholesale silver order?

Four state that the buyer pays: elf925, Blue Apple (outside the United States), Silver Palace (on international orders) and Sonara. 925silverjewelry.com says import tax and duty may apply depending on order value, and 925 Silver Shine says it chooses carriers that avoid excess taxes and duties for the buyer. Nihaojewelry offers an Express-DDP channel on which it covers all duties, with the buyer covering the tax charge otherwise. AdornTrade includes duty on its duty-prepaid lines to the USA and the UK, its EU duty-paid lines cover parcels up to $165 declared value, and any service where duty is paid on delivery is labelled as such at checkout. Primarose, Boma and Stuller do not say on the pages read.

How do I check that a supplier's silver is really 925?

Start with the listing: the material should appear as a specification value, not only in the title, and the supplier should say what that value is based on. AdornTrade's 939 silver listings (count as of 3 November 2026) each carry a 925 label from the supplier's source record. Then compare the price with the metal content of a comparable piece; the sterling silver rings shelf shows how the material field is presented here.

How often will these terms change?

Often enough that the date matters. Between 14 September and 11 October 2026, two suppliers on this list changed whether prices show without a login, one in each direction, and minimums or terms can differ from one page to another on the same site. Everything above was read on 11 October 2026 from the pages listed below; before a first order, open the supplier's FAQ, shipping and returns pages yourself.
