Does anyone know where I might source the material seen in the attached photo? I need about 1,700 lin feet in cherry for a customer who would like to cover an entire wall.
Thank you in advance for any help.

Do you have the tools/space/ability to do it yourself?
1,700 ln feet? How big is the wall?

We do work like that, there are a couple of ways of going about it. I 'd bet lunch that you won't find it on the shelf. Bent laminated veneers, either pressed or form bent.
One question is lengths, another would have to do with finish. Bookmatching from piece to piece is another question. And then I'm wondering about the gaps, if this is used as wall covering - mostly curious.

I checked out your website, you're work looks great.
One question though, how do you build things that nice out of acorns?
It does look like a perfect application of vaccum bag veneering.
Just to quell my curiosity, what is that??... an undulating ,ribbon wall/ room partition. My curiousity is tweaked . How about helping a guy out.....

The photo was taken of drawer fronts by either HO or Arch. HO wants to cover an entire wall with this detail. New pic is attached.

I thought that first pic was a pice of furniture. I am sure there are plenty of cabinet shops that can do that. It is going to be very spendy tho. Part of the problem is going to be covering the sides. Just a WAG I'd say $10-$12 Ln Ft at 6" wide.
