The world of luxury jewellery gained a sparkling new platform today with the launch of Jewels of the World, Riyadh’s most anticipated jewellery showcase.

Hosted at the Hilton Riyadh Hotel and Residences, this inaugural event is set to dazzle visitors from 3-6 November, uniting collectors, trendsetters, and jewellery connoisseurs for a one-of-a-kind celebration of beauty, craftsmanship, and artistic mastery.

Inaugurated by Krayem AlEnazi, President of the National Committee for Precious Metals and Gemstones of the Federation of Saudi Chambers, the exhibition marks the first major jewellery show of this Riyadh Season, offering a spectacular display of artistry from across Arabia, Asia, Europe, and beyond. Over four days, the exhibition will captivate guests with rare gemstones, fine craftsmanship, and avant-garde designs from some of the world’s leading jewellers and emerging artisans alike.

A Showcase of Unparalleled Creations and Global Talents

Jewels of the World draws a fascinating spectrum of jewellery styles, from timeless classics adorned with diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds to modern interpretations featuring natural pearls and contemporary designs. Among the standout pieces is a magnificent Diamond Lozenge and Emerald Necklace by the fifth-generation jeweller Araya, featuring 439.31 carats of emeralds complemented by 33.33 carats of diamonds—a true masterpiece that embodies the brand’s dedication to creating only 100 unique art pieces per year.

Nsouli Jewelry also commands attention with its Emerald Diamond Necklace, a harmonious blend of exquisite materials that showcases the house’s commitment to purity and elegance. Additionally, Tariq Riaz, a tech-guru-turned-jeweller, introduces an innovative twist to high jewellery, with creations that use precision mechanisms to adapt and move with the wearer, combining luxury and functionality.

Visitors can also admire Etho Maria’s intricately designed high jewellery pieces, which require over 1,000 hours of meticulous handcrafting, as well as the boundary-pushing designs from Nafees Jewellers that marry boldness with couture sophistication.

The exhibition also brings together a diverse array of prestigious jewellers, including House of Gems, JH Jewellers, K Lalita, LIDA Diamond, Nado’s Jewellery, Panchoo Jewels, Raaya Fine Jewellery, and Rakyans Fine Jewellery, to name a few.

Celebrating Ten Years of Jewellery Excellence in Saudi Arabia

Jewels of the World commemorates a decade of high-jewellery exhibitions in Saudi Arabia with a special installation featuring 10 AI-generated artworks that encapsulate the evolution of jewellery artistry in the Kingdom. This unique installation reflects both the rich heritage and the forward-thinking approach that Jewels of the World aims to uphold in its annual showcase.

The event is open to the public daily from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m., with Danat, the Bahrain Institute for Pearls & Gemstones, offering complimentary authentication services on all purchases. This year’s debut is sponsored by Lucid Motors, American Express, The Brink’s Company, and Storemakers.

Jewels of the World is not just an exhibition; it’s an invitation to experience the captivating allure of fine jewellery. With its exquisite displays and rare finds, the event promises to be a mainstay on Saudi Arabia’s luxury calendar, appealing to those who appreciate beauty, rarity, and the fine art of jewelled elegance.
