The only depiction of a chess pawn I can find that is
non period is the modern chess set.

The depiction of a pawn in the Pic Dic is from
Publicius' Ars oratoria from 1482.  That certainly
sounds period to me.  I would recommend using it
and get the precedent clarified.

alas we are all but pawns...

Magnus
