Working with antler

I would have thought buffing it would work well.. However im an ameteur, so dont take my advice :)

shellac and paste wax works well .

just about any glue that will work with wood will work with antler / bone / ivory etc

Gel or thick CA would be my first choice

I would not use any finish..just wax and buff if I were you. CA or poly glue work ok..if you want it very white, boil in water & bleach

Ditto to buffing.

epoxy glue would work well.

I’d used two part epoxy, I’ve used it for antler knife handles….I would go with the buffing and wax..I’ve used BLO on antlers that I’ve mounted, but using the antler to hang jewelry, it would probably rub off .Looking forward to seeing the end result…
