Jacques-Émile Ruhlmann was born in Paris in 1879 as the son of an Alsatian family. His parents ran a painting and mirror shop, which Ruhlmann took over after the death of his father in 1907. Soon he expanded the product range with his own furniture designs. In 1913, he presents his first design, a bureau, at the Parisian Autumn Salon. Together with the painter Pierre Laurent he founded a company for high-quality interior decoration - Ruhlmann & Laurent - in 1919. First produced in workshops of friends, from 1927 onwards the exquisite furniture designs were manufactured in-house. The reputation of the furniture was legendary and the clients, such as the Élysée Palace, were of the highest ranks. In 1925, Ruhlmann was allowed to design an entire pavilion for the Paris Art Déco exhibition. Ruhlmann died in 1933 at the age of only 54. Following his wish, the company was thereupon closed down. Until the present day, Ruhlmann's furniture is regarded as an exquisite highlight of the Art Déco period. Quote: "To this day I have never thought about mass-produced furniture."

Die Eltern betreiben dort ein Maler- und Spiegelgeschäft, das Ruhlmann 1907 nach dem Tod seines Vaters übernimmt. Er erweitert das Angebot durch eigene Möbelentwürfe. Im Jahre 1913 zeigt er erstmals einen Sekretär auf dem Pariser Herbstsalon. 1919 gründet er zusammen mit dem Maler Pierre Laurent ein Firma für hochwertige Raumausstattungen - Ruhlmann & Laurent. Die exquisiten Möbelentwürfe wurden zunächst in befreundeten und ab 1927 in eigenen Werkstätten gefertigt. Der Ruf der Möbel war legendär und die Auftraggeber von höchstem Rang, so etwa der Élysée-Palast. 1925 darf Ruhlmann auf der Pariser Art Déco Ausstellung einen ganzen Pavillon gestalten. Mit nur 54 Jahren stirbt Ruhlmann im Jahr 1933. Nach seinem Wunsch wird die Firma daraufhin aufgelöst. Bis heute zählen die Ruhlmann'schen Möbel zu den erlesensten Erzeugnissen des Art Déco.
