Beautiful relief work. I'm sure everybody else is afraid to ask, so I will. Did your grandmother sit in this short chair or is it a wide child's chair? I believe it is older than she is.
A horse shoe back low chair.
Lots of background here:

Hard to place age from pics & I'm no expert. Guess, pre 1930's. Doesn't look ver oriental to me.
