Ocassionally there are things that take precedence over discussions on antique furniture... you see, I'm a cynical political junkie. Cynical from watching so many politicians use tactics that serve to divide our nation... our families... my family... into red & blue sides of the table (a Hunzinger preferably). I've been inspired to put away my cynicism and to instead belive that things can be better. Perhaps we are not as divided as our politics suggest... perhaps there is hope for a different kind of America.
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.
