You are correct, this is not really the place. If you read the rules when posting you would see that valuations and advertising are not allowed on the forum.

Besides, this is a really complex question that hinges on many variables. Your best bet is to search out completed auctions (Ebay, Etsy, auction houses, etc.) to find your range of prices. You cannot use the prices on retail sites like 1st Dibbs, Charish, etc. as they are typically inflated 300-500%. Of course, location, condition, and luck will also play a large part in the price you could hope to realize. Experience with buying and selling vintage furniture, is something that takes time to master, so you may need to come to the realization that you are going to have to sell it where you can, for what you can. Maximization is not something you will likely achieve, especially with the condition issues you have pointed out that the chair has, primary of which is that it has repainting that has been performed. Good luck!

I've seen these with original black finish that is chipping so that doesn't necessarily mean the chair has been repainted. More info (in the form of well-focused closeup photos taken in good light) is needed before this can be determined.

Hi.

All rocking chairs should mandatorily have patina and chips. And nervous cats. and Hi miles. I actually have a friend who sits in an Eames rocker (indian style), and peels potato's for many hours at a time (daily)... Sometimes clad in a Sears poncho. WE just don't know why?? I fine man with a knife. Handsome,too.
