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.

Hunzingerish
Yet again, people will list anything with a twisted part as a Hunzinger. Although this chair is very Hunzingerish, the manufacture's mark is definitly not.
What do you think of this one. Although I can see why it is attributed to Hunzinger, there are no markings. The spring seat is an interesting attribute.
