Help me identify this sentimental set with missing pieces

You should ask @ClairvoyantCrow
They bought this set recently:

they tend to get referred to as "Russian Style"

this one is very close to your set.
these are same style but worse execution:

I own one that is not a perfect fit to yours, the collars on my set are thinner, less pronounced.
basically this: https://www.amazon.com/Staunton-Russian-Knight-Natural-Boxwood/dp/B01LIGTROO/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=russian+chess+set&qid=1659772113&sr=8-10

20 years ago my high school physics teacher gave me this chess set. We had played chess almost every day and this was a graduation gift.
Over the years several pieces have been lost or stolen and I'm looking to replace them (or buy another of the same set).
From what I've researched so far, the knight looks sort of Zagreb style, but the bishop seems very unique with its long head.
Any help is appreciated.
