Hi, i recently worked on this chair. There are no markings or anything and I have never seen a design like it. Does anyone know who may have made it?

It's called a 'Windsor' chair. You may be able to find one like yours by doing a google search.
I would research "Windsor Style Chair". There is a major difference between an actual Windsor and a Windsor Style chair.
Not much in that style that I would even attribute to a windsor origin.
Looks very uncomfortable to sit in or rest your arms on.

Windsor is pretty close so I would call it windsor style. Finding a maker is nearly impossible, as over the hundreds of furniture makers in the north America, less than 98% left any records at all. A lot of furniture makers also put their own take on style, so there was a lot of invention.
i've seen one like this before. i can't remember where, but a chair like this was featured on a show or something. can't put my finger on it though...
Thank you so much for everyone's suggestion
Looks like it could be a Hunzinger Lollipop chair. Check out this article for more info: https://www.collectorsweekly.com/articles/furniture-of-the-future/
that is George I have a piece by him he is known for the spring mechanisms on his rocking chairs you are very lucky to have that cheer it's a lollipop all right
Thank you, Hunter and Russel, I found out after that it was a Hunzinger. I am currently on the hunt for more. Absolutely love the design.
Good job hunter-- looks like you got it!
