Polished to the highest degree of excellence; complete; perfect; as, a finished poem, a finished education. "The keen observation and ironical pleasantry of a finished man of the world."-Macaulay. "There are two great and separate senses in which we call a thing finished. One, which refers to the mere neatness and completeness of the actual work, as we speak of a well-finished knife-handle or ivory toy; and secondly, a sense which refers to the effect produced by the thing done, as we call a picture well-finished, if it is so full in its details as to produce the effect of reality."-Ruskin.
