Cliff,
Thats cool! Don't worry.  They are already sealed with a matt clear. That should protect OK. I also suspect (but forgot to ask) that they are already seasoned / dried.

Much to nice a finish....
.... have you considered using them as candy dishes....?
You have to see a NOS model.... roughly made of readily available Canadian hard wood.... maple...ash.....even suspect pine..... and quickly painted OD. These were made by many local wood shops under contract and the quality, finish, manufacturing techiques and dimensions would vary greatly I have seen 60 year old ++ examples in the back of cabs that were still in one piece.....dirty...moldy but still intact. I beleive a lot has to do with the orientation of the growth rings and slow tight growth ( higher quality wood) versus quick thick growth rings of poorer quality wood. By the way what kind of exotic wood did he use....? Bob
