A seal coat of shellac will allow virtually any finish of choice to be
applied over it.
Interesting timing for the question; there's an article in current FWW
on finishing oily woods in one of the shorter columns that's got good
background information.

Who knows (other than the manufacturer)?
Best bet is lacquer or oil. If the finish is hard and shiny it is probably
lacquer; if not, it *may* be oil. Lacquer thinner will tell you for
sure...if it melts the finish then it was lacquer.
