Our Heritage & Vision

CHISEL DROP is a contemporary jewellery brand born from legacy, passion, and purpose. Proudly powered by our parent company GJG GEMS, our name is rooted in heritage and remembrance. GJG represents the initials of our forefathers — a tribute to their blessings, values, and entrepreneurial spirit that continue to guide us.

Founded in 2012, GJG GEMS was established with one clear vision: to change the status quo of the gemstone industry. By creating a direct platform from mines to consumers, we ensure that every piece of jewellery offers unmatched value, authenticity, and transparency.

We specialize exclusively in 100% natural gemstones. Most of our gemstones are certified by distinguished independent laboratories, and all certifications and appraisals are transparently available on our platform — because trust is the foundation of everything we create.

The People Behind the Brand

Founder

Harsh Chauhan

Driven by a deep fascination for gemstones and their mystical significance, Harsh transformed passion into purpose. His journey took him across the world — sourcing rough gemstones from Kenya, Namibia, Bangkok, and Hong Kong, while conducting extensive research globally. His relentless pursuit of quality led him to establish GJG GEMS in 2012, expanding the family’s business into the USA with a commitment to delivering treasures meant to be passed down through generations.

Co-Founder

Tamanna Dhankher

Fascinated by minimal jewellery, Tamanna left the IT world to join GJG GEMS. Building a collection for a US client became the turning point where the vision for CHISEL DROP was born. She strongly believes in women empowerment—today, 50% of the CHISEL DROP team is comprised of talented women contributing to design, craftsmanship, and operations. Her goal is to build a platform where creativity, independence, and opportunity thrive.

Our Mentor

Om Kailash Chauhan

The backbone, mentor, and inspiration behind the business, Om Kailash Chauhan laid the groundwork for GJG GEMS through extensive research in the export industry. His dedication and foundational efforts established the platform on which the company flourished. His vision and commitment remain deeply embedded in the brand’s ethos today.
