I have a holly bowl and the wood is extremely white.
I have tested a few finishes on scrap pieces and they all change the final color of the finished product.
Shellac, - yellows
French polish - yellows
Renaissance wax - darkens or grey’s the finish
BLO - yellows
Anyone have any ideas I am running out of scrap pieces…
It will be used as a fruit bowl so I do not want to use anything that can not come in contact with food...
