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.

Hunzinger Lollipop Platform Rocker
Although I am not a big fan of the lollipop style chair, I find this one exquisite. It is a platform rocker with a paper Hunzinger label. It is listing on eBay right now for $750.
I have a Hunzinger lollipop platform chair just like this. this is the only one i've seen. After searching and searching. I love my chair and it's been in the my family for only 45 years. I do not know where it came from. I just wish there were more posting of this type. when you do a search the other chairs come up. GREAT. THANKS for having it out there.
