Are they covered in some sort of lacquer/finish or is it just the bare wood?

Yes they seem to be covered in a lacquer finish. I put them in dishwasher before using.

When I first got my set, they seemed to be a bit shiny, possibly a light finish. It quickly wore off after a few uses. The handles are still shiny though.

they are usually particle board covered in a vinyl/plastic. Some have a wood grained finish in the vinyl/plactic. Some are covered in a lightweight Mylar. I have had about 15 of these and none of them are plywood.

I saw they are advertised as natural finish. It doesn't look like lacquer on them. Maybe they are finished to a high gloss or conditioned with a natural oil? I would check with the manufacturer if you need to know for sure. I love them and have used them everyday. They are very durable.

They are particle board with cherry veneer. I meant solid in the sense of strong and thick enough so they don't sag with heavy books on them, not hardwood.

Not real hardwood. Laminate with a "sticker" finish. They look decent for what you pay. Not super high quality stuff.

They are made of acrylic. I used them and they looked great. They did the job perfectly.

They are real wood. They were made in China like most things these days, and even as a carpenter I couldn't really tell you exactly what type. We are still very happy with them and they match our living room well. The only down fall is that they attract my dogs white hair really well !

They are wooden. Yes, they are not super tight in there, but we have had no issues with them!

They are a brushed pewter/darker silver color. I love this piece in my kitchen!

Mine were wood, and very nice for decorative use. I have no idea if they are good for practical purposes as I do not have a boat. However, I got them last year.

It's really more like a "painted/stained" look to the wood frame. I love them and have gotten several compliments on them. They match my "dragonfly" motiff in my bathroom at our lakehome. The frame makes the photo appear very "rich".

They are dark with a rustic look center. On my oak cabinets they are very rich looking & have made them look like new. They would be very dark on white, but, depending on your theme may be okay.

they have a black finish but its not painted. So you will have to paint them. But they look pretty good.

Yes, the wood is finished with a light coat of lacquer which makes the hangers smooth to the touch.

Oops, I forgot to say they are solid wood with a veneer top. Beautiful work.

They look and feel like polished wood. As far as I can tell, they don't smell. If you really sniff them, however, they do have a faint paint smell but thats because the ends are painted and have a finish on them.
