Hand-Carved Lewis Chessmen Rook – Viking Warrior with Sword and Shield

Bring the legendary spirit of Norse warriors to your collection with this stunning Lewis Chessmen Rook, hand-carved from sustainably sourced moose antlers by artisans at AlgizRune Art Workshop. Inspired by the iconic Rook—a Viking warrior gripping a sword and shield—this unique figurine stands 8 cm (3.15 inches) tall and showcases intricate medieval detail and traditional bone texture. Modeled after the historic set discovered in 1831 at Uig Beach, Isle of Lewis, Scotland, the original Lewis Chessmen were crafted in Trondheim, Norway, from walrus ivory and whale tooth. This replica, perfect for collectors of Norse or medieval art, chess lovers, or museum fans, is individually handmade. Custom commissions for other pieces in the Lewis set are available upon request.
