The panel dedicated to performing arts features meticulously carved musical instruments, Another panel pays homage to the world of painting, added with an artist's easel and brush. The performing-themed panel encompasses traits of theater and literature, like books and stage elements, while the final panel, devoted to architecture, contains buildings and structural designs. The middle section is furnished with four drawings, each containing a round knob with concentric lines. The base of the sideboard is gracefully composed of carved, cone-shaped legs adorned with grissinato carvings that subtly diverge.
