Traditional French polishing can’t be beaten when it comes to bringing out the beauty of finer woods, like mahogany.

It shows off the richness, depth and chatoyancy (cat eye effect) of the wood, while protecting it from damage. French polishing also scratches, watermarks and even dents and gouges, making your furniture look like new.

Shellac is highly durable and won’t require much further polishing once it’s been applied. If you drop your keys on a French polished surface, it’s unlikely to cause any damage. It generally provides much better protection than a wax finish.

Unsurprisingly, this remains one of the most popular polishing techniques for antique furniture along with stair rails, flooring and musical instruments. Since this is an intricate procedure, it’s important to hire professionals who know how to apply it effectively.
