I don't know about the 'best' but I'd use a setting oil like Rustin's Danish or Penetrol.Cliff.
If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

My choice would be NC laquer if it's actually going to get used as a desk, Rustins if it's mostly going to get looked at rather than used.
