I've been using a satin oil based finish in all my walnut projects and really loving the results. Used it on all the walnut in our kitchen.
That looks nice!

I was making 'kind of' black pipe shelves using walnut. The room color is a little dark (Sherwin Williams' Waterloo) so a lighter finish would go well. I like Danish Oil (Dark Walnut) but it may be to dark for tye room color.
