Emory Tate Table Top Tribute

 

This table brings elevation to its space with a true masterpiece of craftsmanship and chess history. Our precisely fashioned round table top is more than just a piece of furniture; it’s a work of art that embodies the strategic brilliance of International Master Emory Tate.

 

This unique table top features an intricately engraved chessboard, meticulously capturing the essence of the game that took place at the 2001 New Jersey Open. In that unforgettable match, Emory Tate, known for his daring and innovative play, faced off against the formidable three-time US Chess Champion Nick De Firmian. De Firmian’s remarkable chess career, marked by his championship titles in 1987, 1995, and 1998, along with his shared first place in 2002, underscores the exceptional difficulty level of his opponents.

 

What truly sets this piece apart is the inclusion of a thought-provoking Emory Tate quote, a tribute to his wisdom and the indomitable spirit he brought to the chessboard.

 

Along the circumference of this round table, we have engraved the notation of that memorable game, preserving the moves and strategies that unfolded in that historic battle. Emory Tate’s creative genius and tactical brilliance shine through every intricately engraved move.

 

Crafted with unparalleled attention to detail, our table top is a fusion of art and functionality. It’s a conversation starter, a piece of chess history, and a testament to the enduring appeal of the game.
