Due to the Covid-19 outbreak this event has been POSTPONED.

At the Goldsmiths’ Company Assay Office we prioritise the health and safety of our guests, customers and staff, as well as wider society. For this reason, we've had to take the difficult decision to postpone the Fakes & Forgeries Seminar on the 30th of March.

We are looking at new dates for the Seminar later in the year, which we will try to confirm shortly. But I would ask for you patience as we see how the Covid-19 situation continues to develop. We were so looking forward to welcoming you to Goldsmiths’ Hall at the end of the month, but believe that this move is in the best interest of all our guests and staff.
