I have a set of these pieces and am very fond of them; it's a Philippine Staunton design. I don't know of any UK shops which stock them, but there are a couple of sets available in this country on ebay as we speak. I hope you find what you're looking for, and at least you know now what name to search for.
Looking for this exact wooden chess set (or a very close match) – Any ideas?

Holger, a forum member, here has some vintage but new condition sets for sale https://www.chess-collection.de/newpagea672c707. Price is very reasonable IMO.
Hi everyone,
About 10 years ago, I saw this wooden chess set on eBay, but I lost the bid. I recently came across the photo again, and I still really want to find this exact set or one extremely similar.
I don’t know all the details for sure, but it has a classic Staunton-like design with some distinctive elements, especially in the knights and the tops of the kings and queens.
Does anyone know where I might find this set (or something nearly identical) for sale? Any online stores, UK-based shops, or sellers that might have it?
I’d really appreciate any info—thanks in advance!
