Sharjah24: The bi-annual Watch and Jewellery Middle East Show (WJMES) is progressing into its third uninterrupted day at Expo Centre Sharjah, offering visitors a unique shopping experience at one of the largest events of its kind on the agenda of trade exhibitions specialising in jewellery in the region.
The exhibition, which will continue until September 29, showcases a collection of the most exquisite and intricately crafted jewellery creations and gold pieces inspired by the Emirati heritage, complemented by international and local designs, along with exclusive and high-end jewellery and diamond pieces.
The 54th edition of the Watch and Jewellery Middle East Show features a display of the “Meriet Al-Mustaqbal", the largest gold jewelry set in the world, crafted from approximately 5 kilograms of 21-karat gold and is valued at AED 2.5 million.
