Rather delicate ending? (6)
I believe the answer is:
finish
'rather delicate ending?' is the definition.
'finish' can be an answer for 'ending?' (finish is a kind of ending). I am unsure of the 'rather delicate' bit.
'ending?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'ending?' could be 'finis' (finis is a kind of ending) and 'finis' is found in the answer.
A single letter 'h' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for finish that I've seen before include "Complete or terminate" , "End, complete" , "surface texture" , "Put the final touches to" , "Perfect" .)
