I have heard this word somewhere but am unsure how to spell it.

He had a certain level of mastery of his pottery skills, he completed all his work with remarkable finash/feenash/phinash/phines

It might not be the best example of the usage of the word. But I have looked up online and the wordweb dictionary to no use. It's not 'finish'. It sounded like fee-na-sh.

Any idea? Or am I misunderstood and there isn't such a word?

    "Panache", maybe?

The word you are looking for is probably finesse.

When referring to something creative or artistic, it means great skill and delicacy - getting all the 'fine' details right.
