We have produced several pairs of these radius nightstands in maple and Pearwood. They are very attractive but labor intensive to construct. When we build these, we pay great attention to detail and matching. These cabinets are not mass produced and do not look like it. We try not to get to carried away with really wild wood patterns primarily because the design makes a statement and the wood is there to back up the design, not dominate it. I think burled woods can work well with this design as long as we are careful not to over due a good thing.
