Mid-Century Modern Walnut Bookcase by Merton Gershun, c.1960’s

Designed by Merton Gershun for Dillingham in the 1960s, this expertly refinished walnut bookcase captures the refined elegance of Mid-Century Modern design. The clean-lined silhouette features open shelving on the left for easy access to books and decor, while the right side offers a cabinet with adjustable shelving behind a seamless walnut door. Raised on tapered legs, the case floats lightly in space, balancing utility and sculptural simplicity. The warm walnut grain has been beautifully revived, adding depth and richness to the minimalist form. Fun Historical Fact: Merton Gershun was known for designing practical, affordable furniture that brought high-end modernist aesthetics to middle-class American homes during the postwar boom.
