Chohan Goldsmiths Silvermsmiths

Did you know? Most jewellers carry pieces that are ordered from catalogs, or mass-produced by wholesalers. Even your average "custom designed" piece from the local jeweller is often completely outsourced from its beginning to its end. These outsourced processes often include designing, casting, benchwork, setting, polishing, and plating. Why settle for a run of the mill generic piece when we can create for you a bespoke piece of art; custom tailored to your style, desires, and imagination. All of our pieces are custom designed and hand crafted in Toronto. Unlike our competition we don’t believe in cutting corners and outsourcing our work. Jewellery to us, is a passion of love and heritage. We are proud to call our selves Goldsmiths and Silversmiths. Pritam Chohan is a jeweller born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
