A Family Story

In 1977, in the heart of Anjou—a region renowned for its artisanal and manufacturing tradition—Anjou Sièges was born, a manufacturing workshop dedicated to furniture, sofas, and armchairs.

It was in this building that the initial skills were developed, the first teams formed, and the foundations of a demanding work culture based on manufacturing quality and a taste for fine materials were laid.

Over the years, the workshop became a true center for creation and heritage, perpetuating a vision of furniture driven by technique, precision, and French craftsmanship. Even today, these walls house the RALPH M. collection workshop, continuing this family and artisanal history.

In 2005, the story took a new turn when Alain Mouraud, former head of a French furniture manufacturer, and his son Ralph Mouraud—who brought experience in business development and marketing from a major American automotive equipment supplier—decided to join forces to breathe new life into this iconic workshop.

Joined by Virginie Mouraud, who took charge of administration, and an initial team of several technicians in the workshop, they founded Anjou Sièges Création with a clear ambition: to revive French expertise in contemporary sofas and armchairs.

The first collections then took shape in the workshops while the distribution network was gradually built, driven by a demanding vision of product, comfort, and manufacturing quality.

It was the beginning of a deeply family-oriented and human adventure, founded on heritage, commitment, and a passion for furniture.

The year 2014 marked a major turning point in the company’s history.

Anjou Sièges Création became RALPH M., with the aim of asserting a strong, contemporary identity resolutely focused on the world of decoration and interior design.

This evolution resulted in a new vision for furniture: cleaner lines, collections designed as a whole, and more in-depth work with textiles and designer fabrics, which gradually complemented and then reinvented the historical leatherwork.

Beyond the product, the ambition became to build a true brand, carrying a unique universe, sensibility, and recognized French craftsmanship.

RALPH M. no longer offers just sofas or armchairs, but a global vision of the interior where design, materials, and elegance tell a coherent and lasting story.

In 2017, RALPH M. reached a decisive milestone with its first participation in the Maison&Objet trade fair, a key event for decoration and contemporary design.

This first appearance marked the brand’s entry into the high-end furniture market and the discovery of the collections by independent stores, interior designers, and specifiers.

This founding moment allowed for the building of the first partnerships with the distribution network and established the brand’s long-term presence in the world of decoration.

The year 2026 marks a new stage in the evolution of RALPH M. with the meeting of Dominique Tosiani, founder of La Maison Générale, who joins the brand as Artistic Director.

A collaboration born from a shared vision of design, materials, and the elegance of contemporary interiors.

This new impulse affirms the desire to evolve the RALPH M. identity through a global artistic direction: a new visual identity, a new logo, new communication tools, and the development of a more selective and qualitative distribution network.

Beyond furniture, the brand now asserts a complete vision of interior design, conceived as a true lifestyle universe for the home.

The launch of the rug collection thus enriches this approach and strengthens the brand’s decorative identity.

More than just a collaboration, this meeting marks the beginning of a new chapter where creation, French craftsmanship, and the work of materials unite to carry the brand toward a more global, sensitive, and demanding vision.
