I found 3/4 inch Spanish cedar online for $1.19/tsf (tenth square foot) in random widths. Assuming the same cost per board foot and a diameter of six feet for the door, I get over $1300.
Three inch thick Spanish cedar in lengths/widths suitable for building a door will be much higher per board foot than that.

Like I said . . . a kilobuck wouldn’t pay for the wood. Let alone the custom ironwork and the woodworker’s time in the piece.
