What if the wood was *white* (American holly) and you wanted the grips to look like ivory? I have some holly and want to make a set of grips for my BHP and maybe one of my revolvers. The wood is drying now; still in a big block with the endgrain painted, so it's going to be a while until I get to it.

I don't want the finish to be yellow because it would show. Should I use a water-based polyurethane varnish?
