This looks like a Lake Chair. I have one but it isn't as ornate.

What you have is a reproduction Asante Asipim chair. They generally were made for royalty or the leader of the tribe.If it was original, it would be valued around $1000 to $2500. As a reproduction around $350 to $500.

I see "She" of Moses Lake and William of Burbank have answered your question so all I can add is to say what an interesting piece this is! I picture that beside a chair and used as an end table holding a drink or snack. I would just put a few books on the seat for interest and also let the metal part (on the backrest) show. It certainly is a conversation piece and I'm interested to know how or where you acquired it.

If I were you, I would send a picture of it to Sotheby's and see what they say about it. You might have a real museum piece. I would be leary of just any appraiser....too many times they will low ball it to get it cheap.

I was just thinking how easy it would be to make a small table to match it, out of a parson's table, upholstery tacks, and metal strips, if you ever want one.
