Pieces are made to order, so order by late January.

Founding Day or National Day?
They are two different days. Founding Day (22 February) remembers the first Saudi state, founded in 1727. Saudi National Day (23 September) marks the unification of the Kingdom in 1932. The Al Saudia necklace suits both, which is why our Al Saudia and Al Emarat guide covers them together.
