Currently it is stained and varnished but I would like to sand it
down and apply oil or beeswax.

- depending on it's angle to the light the wood reflects the light in
different ways. - Is it real mahogany or ?

Impossible to tell what the shaped piece is, what it is resting on is
mahogany. "Real" mahogony? Well, Carribean/Latin America as opposed to
Phillipine but exactly what kind of Carribean/Latin America I couldn't
say. Best guess is Honduras in which case it would be "real" (Swietenia
macrophylla).
