Hi Julie,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
To confirm, the bookcase with glass doors sits on top of the lower piece? Is it possible to take and attach a photo of both the top and bottom together, the one on top of the other?
Also, if you'd like this appraisal to include dimensions, which is customary, please let me know what the overall height, width (side to side) and depth (front to back) are and I'll include them in the appraisal.
Many thanks in advance,
Delia
I was able to add the picture to the others
