In celebration of the Goldsmiths’ Company’s 700th anniversary, the London Assay Office (LAO) has unveiled a special leopard’s head commemorative mark – available exclusively to its customers throughout 2027 – with all proceeds from its application donated to the Silversmiths' and Jewellers' Charity, and The Benevolent Society.
From medieval London to the most innovative makers working today, through a year-long programme of events, exhibitions and experiences, Treasuring Brilliance will give you the chance to discover the people, objects, skills and places that tell the story of seven centuries of our trade and craft.
The 2027 Anniversary Awards – which highlight the Company’s centuries long commitment to the trade and craft of silversmithing – provide each institution up to £8,000 in funding to commission a piece that contains a significant element of precious metal, and that relates closely to the local area, landscape, audiences or communities.
