Help: Unknown Antique Needlepoint Armchair

This has been in our family since my aunt and grandmother created the needle point seat and back for it in the 50's. It may be from a kit? Or did they do this as a restoration project? I can't find anything else like it. Fantastic condition, because it is so uncomfortable to sit in! Can anyone give me some key words to use for this so I can search for something similar? Continental? Louis XVI? I will post dimensions soon, but for now, it is large enough for a 250-lb man; it is full-sized. Thanks for any feedback!
