I'm working with an artist to fabricate a sculpture consisting of intersecting panels of various hardwoods. I've included a maquette below for reference. I'd like the finish to be lustrous but without being in any way shiny. Wood species will run the gamut, although mostly the softer ones... walnut, cherry, maple, teak, birch, etc. Any recommendations on process or finishes?
Thanks!
