half wall material?

Hi - what material is used on the side of the half wall? Is that dry wall? And how far over does the countertop go over the edge? Also, is the top the same as the kitchen countertop? thanks!

The end "wall" is actually just another cabinet with a pull-out for spices. So it's wood, same finish as all other cabinets.

The countertop hangs over about an inch and yes, the bar top is the same material.

However, in case I misunderstood your question... the wall behind the cabinets, the one with the bar top, is all drywall. By the way, this type of wall is called a "knee wall".
