Default Finishing hard maple

I am making a set of 3 stacking tables. Each table will have a center
rectangle of hard maple with 2 1/2" wide edges of mahogany. The legs,
stretchers, skirts, will all be mahogany. The maple is plain hard maple, not
curly etc. I have been reading Bob Flexner's book. He likes wiping varnish
or dying and glazing but the dying and glazing seems to be more for highly
figured wood. I wonder if members of this group have some opinions about
things you have done that came out well.

TIA.

Dick Snyder
