The triaxial cabinet has two structural levels which are upwardly tapered and separated by a removable writing plate. The wood intarsia decoration display flower motifs, cartouches and genre scenes and are partially separated with tin wire. The 20 drawers located on both sides of the mid-section are made of a special stone (“Kehlheimer Stein”) with inlayed depictions of various cities. The centre piece is accentuated by two columns. Of the three rectangular, upright drawers with inlays the one in the middle stands out due to its colourful pietre-dure bird-motifs. The top piece displays the coat of arms of the Prince-bishop of Brixen, Kaspar Ignatz Count Künigl.
