Gelim, the new name for Ptolemy Mann Rugs

About us



When Ptolemy Mann and Julian Blair (co-founder of Rugmaker) first met they discovered a shared passion for exquisite, hand made rugs. Deciding to bring together their respective expertise to create the most beautiful rugs possible has become an inspiring journey. Ptolemy’s elegant and colourful designs which express her unique ikat signature – alongside Rugmaker’s 30 years extensive knowledge of the manufacturing process worldwide meant they could create a truly stunning collection of original rugs. 

Each year Ptolemy Mann and Rugmaker travel to India to meet their masterweavers and dyers to explore new ideas and designs. This unique relationship focusing on technique allows them to collaborate and perfect this artisan process.
