1860s piano finish

I am about to embark on the restoration of an 1860s rosewood piano whose french polish finish has darkened over time. Is there anything that can be done to lighten the oxidations of the finish without removing it? What is the best stragegy for french polishing an old finish such as this?

Thanks for your attention!
