			I have pieces that were covered in polyurethane varnish.  As long as they have not been painted with oil based paints which your item has not.  A commercial varnish remover is okay.  Any original organic lacquer should be okay but I would not let the stuff stay on too long on stain wood and the like.  I have removed varnish from old blades and the patina of the blade prior to varnishing has always been there.
