  1. The chair has considerable value to collectors. Some have sold for thousands of dollars. refinishing it may destroy the value. It should be refurbished by a pro.

  2. If, in fact, it is a real Eames chair, anything YOU do to it will destroy any value. Some things are better left to professionals!
