Clean the piece to
remove any surface dirt using a slightly damp rag dipped
in a mild soap and water mixture. Make sure that you dry
it completely with another cloth before proceeding. 
Apply a thin coat
of wax with a soft lint-free cloth working with the grains
of the wood not in circles. Make sure that you apply the
wax evenly and that you press it into dents, dings and
crevices. 
Allow the wax to
dry until it forms a light haze. Use a new lint-free cloth
folded into several thicknesses to buff the wax to a
shine. Work with the grain of the wood and don't be afraid
to se some elbow grease. Continue buffing until you have
achieved the sheen you desire. 
If you decide the
piece is too shiny you can lightly buff the surface with
some quad zero steel wool to dull the shine. Gorgeous.
