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.

Excellent Rocker
I never cease to be amazed when I see yet another style Hunzinger rocker. I have no idea how many models he had, but as you can see, here is another unique one. It appears to be a slightly older model as it has a wood stamp as oposed to the paper stamp. Notice the carved latice on the top. Very cool.
