History. The Chauhans were historically a powerful group in the region now known as Rajasthan. For around 400 years from the 7th century CE their strength in Sambhar was a threat to the power-base of the Guhilots in the south-west of the area, as also was the strength of their fellow Agnivanshi clans.

The Chauhans were historically a powerful group in the region now known as Rajasthan. For around 400 years from the 7th century CE their strength in Sambhar was a threat to the power-base of the Guhilots in the south-west of the area, as also was the strength of their fellow Agnivanshi clans.
They suffered a set-back in 1192 when their leader, Prithviraj Chauhan, was defeated at the Second Battle of Tarain but this did not signify their demise.
The kingdom broke into the Satyapura and Devda branches after the invasion of Qutbu l-Din Aibak in 1197.
The 13th and 14th centuries saw the struggle between the Chauhan Rajputs and the Delhi Sultanate to control the strategic areas of Delhi, Punjab and Gujarat.

The earliest Chauhan inscription is a copper-plate inscription found at Hansot.

Chauhans are Rajputs. Rajputs are kshatriyas as per Hinduism. As far as caste in Sikhism is concerned, Sikhism does not support caste system thier gurus were totally against caste system, all are considered equal in Sikhism.

solid reputation in Toronto’s jewellery industry for over 40 years and he specialized in precious gemstone, diamond, and high karat (22kt) jewellery. What was unique about Gurdip Chohan’s jewellery was that he was able to use high karat gold (22kt) and make jewellery with it that was fashionable and trendy yet still served the astrologers purpose of letting the stone culet touch the skin. Unlike his competitors who would make plain and generic designs to serve the astrology purpose.

Gurdip Chohan retired from the jewellery industry and shut down his business at the age of 65. Not to long after, Gurdip Chohan passed away in the year 2010 at the age of 66 leaving behind a young 15 year old son (Pritam Chohan).

PRESENT
Today the Chohan family’s tradition of fine jewellery crafting is carried through the business of Chohan Goldsmiths. A company founded and operated by Pritam Chohan.

Pritam Chohan is a Toronto (Ontario, Canada) born designer, goldsmith, and founder of Chohan Goldsmiths. His role is to head the designing and manufacturing of all Chohan Goldsmiths pieces. Pritam Chohan was introduced to his craft from his father (Gurdip Chohan) who introduced him to the family trade of goldsmithing. However because Pritam Chohan’s father passed away when Pritam Chohan was only 15 years old, Pritam Chohan had to learn the craft from other sources. Some of these sources included a formal university education, and the aid of literature, individual research and trial and error. Pritam Chohan has experience in CAD design, wax models, casting, fabrication, benchwork, stone setting, polishing, finishing, and many other aspects of goldsmithing and silversmithing.

Pritam Chohan’s humble beginnings in the jewellery industry began from the young age of 5 when he would accompany his father (Gurdip Chohan) a master goldsmith, to his studio after school. Over the years Pritam Chohan had starting sitting on the bench alongside his father (Gurdip Chohan) and learning some very basic techniques of filing and forming metals. Around the age of 8, Pritam Chohan had had his first attempt to craft a ring from scratch; it was not the Mona Lisa of rings, but lets just say it deserved an “A+” for effort.
