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.
This is a really striking piece. After going through your entire gallery of stunning chairs, I found myself coming back to this one and clicking the close-ups over and again. That female visage on either side is almost haunting to me.
