I think some just have a matte finish and others are sealed. I have both types and it doesnt seem like oil, more like an actual finish.

I don't own these but I did get a picture of the original tag. This might help with the proper care of your Witco ship:

Is it inappropriate to say they are really cute?

I was thinking that out of the box they looked a little pissy from spending a week on eBay with essentially nobody wanting them. But now they're chillin'!

It IS just you talking Pocky. Your just so ...Pocky?
I like the Witco chillruns, the orange is signature Witco and very mid-century.

Just got this sweet Witco Fire Dancers -- it was found in a thrift shop in Ohio. A picture just can't capture how three dimensional these are -- the dancers are almost 3 inches deep.

Wow, I really like those fire dancers!
Here is a sailing ship I have up in my garage/workshop right now:
My wife hates it, but it's growing on me!

I found this today. I can't tell if it is a table or stool? Amyone seen this before?
I don't even know if it's Witco, but it sure looks alot like some of the stools for Wicto bars I have seen. Oh well, for $5.00 I took a chance.
