    I’ve tried searching the Internet but I can’t seem to find images that show this exact design. The images I have found have the arms either curved outward instead of inward and the legs joined in the center and like these. I also haven’t been able to find identical feet. If anyone can help solve my mystery I would greatly appreciate it. It belonged to my grandmother.

      Hi,
      It appears to be an Egyptian inspired piece from when Egyptology was the thing in the US-after Carter found Tut! So, I'd start to research that kind of furniture.
      Hope it helps,
      Marcelle
