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 Tables
There are usually a half-dozen of Hunzinger's flip-top gaming tables that sell on eBay each year. Nearly all of them have been re-surfaced at some point (cards put a lot of wear on that felt!). This particular one appears to have original finish along with a decrotive floral patern on the table top. Check out the feet and frame of the table. Very nice!
