well hopefully it is fixed, and fixed as in the nobles don't demand near impossible to meet demands.

The best choice of restraint is therefore a good strong metal chain. A high-quality chain will also let the prisoner admire it, giving him a boost to his happiness.

It was somewhere in fixed bugs list, that in 0.34 nobles no longer make mandates and demands for items made of specific materials.
Well, prior to the release of v0.34.01 Toady said he'd "turned off material-based mandates for the time being," but it looks like he turned them back on.  The "Other bug fixes/tweaks" listed for v0.34.01 said "restricted mandates so they'll be more reasonable", but I don't see that bug ticked off on the changelog page.  And finally, this bug is still listed as "open" at the bugtracker:
944: Baron demands turtle shell door in dining room, and other demands of unattainable item/material combinations

You can make a custom reaction to give him his silver bed.  Otherwise just deal with the unhappiness from having an unmet demand.

Could you mod a tree to be made out of silver, and then make a bed from its logs?

Engraved on the floor is a well-designed image of a kobold and a carp.  The kobold is making a plaintive gesture.  The carp is laughing.

Yep, my baron has been demanding a lead weapon rack forever. I finally gave him one though. So material is definately in there. Thankfully a lead weapon rack isn't hard to do, compared to a silver bed :D

Toady turned off material-based mandates, but he didn't do anything about material-based demands.  Fortunately, failed demands don't cause Justice like failed mandates do.
