I don’t have spraying equipment so by hand. We don’t want a glossy finish on the frame. What would you suggest on this frame? I was considering an oil and wax, but would be willing to notch it up a bit with advise.

Osmo Polyox Satin looks great on walnut and is dead simple to apply. Arm-R-Seal satin works great, too. Rattle can shellac or lacquer would work well, too.

I've been using Minwax Antique Oil Finish lately on walnut, and like it a lot.
Stand for something, or you'll fall for anything.

All of the above is good, when I want the grain and color to pop I use Watco Danish oil

Mineral oil and wax
Danish oil and shellac
Oil first always pops the grain. I'd suggest Watco natural Danish Oil for that application, followed by your choice of clear topcoat. I like shellac followed by wax with 0000 steel wood. Low gloss but looks very rich.
Sharp solves all manner of problems.
