I am making a cherry framed clock. I want the cherry to age naturally: no stain.
Previously, I have used amber shellac on raw cherry and have been pleased with the results.
But (there's always a "But"), was wondering if either cut boiled linseed oil or poly urethane would also give me a pleasing result.
I do want the wood to darken (naturally) with age and therefore, do not want the finish to interfere with the process.
Thoughts? Bill Waller New Eagle, PA
