Winds Cause Sheffield Power Outage - Sheffield Assay Office Closed

**NOTICE TO OUR CUSTOMERS** Due to the unusually high winds causing a total loss of power in our area, we have had to close Sheffield Assay Office early today. We hope to be fully operational by Monday 21st Feb and hope everyone stays safe and well. Thank you.


The Sheffield Assay Office was established in 1773, under an Act of Parliament and today the company assays and hallmarks the precious metals - silver, gold, platinum and palladium. Sheffield Assay Office is one of only four UK assay offices who all work to uphold the Hallmarking Act of 1973 and continue to ensure consumer protection for customers purchasing precious metals.
