That furniture looks really nice.
Hope you do not think I am butting in but do not varnish it.ahhh
Instead after preparation apply a coat of button polish with a lint free cloth to seal it.
Then after de-nibbing between coats give it a few coats of beeswax to bring it to a lovely natural finish.
I used medium oak on one of our caravans.
It also gives the interior that fantastic aroma that everyone likes as soon as they stick their heads in for a look.
I use it all the time on my furniture restoring etc.
