This expanding walnut dining table was designed by Merton Gershun in the 1960s and produced by the Dillingham Furniture Company in the 1970s, as marked underneath. Part of the sought-after “Esprit” collection, the table reflects Gershun’s signature blend of clean modern lines with functional versatility. Its round profile extends into an oval with ease, making it a perfect solution for both intimate settings and larger gatherings. Recently refinished by hand, the rich walnut grain now glows with warmth and depth, giving this table both a striking presence and lasting durability.
