I don't really like the themed sets and want a normal chess set. But the problem is all the chessmen have different styles and when I find one set I like, I hate the Knight, or maybe the bishop. I wish you could mix sets or something and get each piece that you find appealing.
Also, I have no idea how the color swap of the headpieces became a thing. Like on the Dubrovnik set, the Bishops have their head piece colors swapped. Also, the Knight on that set looks stupid, its like they don't know how to carve eyes. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I've always been a fan of the Lewis Isle set. Can't get more classic than that.

You probably could commission someone to make you a custom set. Shouldn't be too horribly expensive if you find the right person and depending on the size and how much detail you want.

When I was a young child I made my dad a custom (crappy child level) chess set from clay and bolts and we used it to play for years
Go find a custom maker if you can't find something that already exists to your liking --- Not a doctor. Shh! ... Copied to Clipboard!
