Saudi International Luxury Week is taking place next month, with the Kingdom’s second city Jeddah seeing its first edition being held following the huge success of its sister event in Riyadh. The events are designed to create a platform for conversation in the luxury jewellery space and are the largest of their kind to ever be held in the Kingdom, with the Riyadh edition tripling in size this year.
Open to the public, Jeddah International Luxury Week will run from 8-11 May 2023 at the Jeddah Hilton, followed by Riyadh International Luxury Week from 16-19 May at
Al Faisaliah Hotel.
With over 120 international jewellery names exhibiting fine and high jewellery collections including standout, multi-million dollar pieces in both cities, Saudi International Luxury Week will showcase the best in exquisite gemstones, creativity, heritage and savoir-faire, and offer a unique opportunity for jewellers to share their craft with discerning Saudi Arabian clientele.
Participating brands include fabled family high jewellery maison Moussaieff Jewellers, bespoke gemstone artisans ITCO Jewelry of New York, Parisian watchmaker Charles Oudin, innovative Italian jeweller Ferri Firenze, pearl experts Yoko London, Middle Eastern Nsouli and edgy yet elegant designers AWKN1, amongst others.
The events will also see a host of interactive seminars and experiences on offer, including a series of educational talks. The Jeddah event will see Middle Eastern jewellery experts address current topics such as the Art of Jewellery Making to Design Trends and Sustainability, and in Riyadh, DANAT – Bahrain Institute for Pearls and Gemstones, will touch on the sourcing of Gemstones, the History of Pearls, and the world of Diamonds.
