That is some beautiful wood. If you finish it with boiled linseed oil, the grain will be beautiful but you won’t have a glossy look if that’s what you are going for. You can use Tung oil finish for more gloss and a reasonably durable finish. The nice thing about these is you can apply more in the future if needed without having to strip/sand the old finish. Experiment on some scrap until you get what you like.
