George Hunzinger was a furniture maker during the later half of the 19th century. He emigrated to the United States in 1855 and began manufacturing furniture in New York City. Like his contemporary furniture makers of the Victorian Age, Hunzinger's pieces are very decorative. What is unique about his furniture is the innovative and distinctive designs he patented. This site contains information and photo's of Hunzinger's work.
Hi, I have a rocker that looks just like this. I believe the tapestry is original, I also have a bench which had horse hair stuffing and both pieces came from the same estate. How can I know if they are original Hunzinger pieces? It looks very similar but I can not find any patent or stamp on the pieces. How can I have these appraised? Where should I take them or email photos to? Please help!

I have a chair just like this, how can I tell if it's a Hunzinger original. It looks and smells like it's very old but it's in perfect condition.
