Beeswax finish? What do you mean by that? This looks fricken' awesome! What do you use to carve into it? A scalpel or...?

I sometimes use a beeswax mixture I get from Clapham's in Canada: [link] - I use the Salad Bowl Finish, which is actually a good general wood finish, and it's food grade, so it's not harmful. I use it on almost all of my wooden jewelry. My other favorite wax is microcrystalline; I use Renaissance brand: [link]
