Ivory artifact "Louis Chess Bishop" discovered on the island of Lewis in Scotland

The chess pieces are now collected in the British Museum and have been exhibited in multiple exhibitions. This chess piece is part of the Louis Chess, a medieval chess set made of ivory, including pieces for kings, queens, bishops, knights, castles, and soldiers. This is a bishop chess piece made of ivory, which is standing, wearing a vestment and shawl, wearing a bishop's crown with tassels on the head, holding a scepter and a book. The chess piece was made around 1150-1200 AD.
