More than 480 reproductions highlight the contributions of Art Deco designer, decorator, and cabinetmaker Jacques-Emile Ruhlmann, encompassing his innovative furniture, accessories, wall coverings, and other achievements.
Émile-Jacques Ruhlmann (28 August 1879 – 15 November 1933), (sometimes called Jacques-Émile Ruhlmann), was a French furniture designer and interior decorator, who was one of the most important figures in the Art Deco movement. His furniture featured sleek designs, expensive and exotic materials and extremely fine craftsmanship, and became a symbol of the luxury and modernity of Art Deco. It also produced a reaction from other designers and architects, such as Le Corbusier, who called for simpler, functional furniture.
