I have never cared much for decorative sets . They are not good for practical use and I dont want something that is just to look at.

Only one piece of that whole set was actually made, the rest is just concept.

IMO, the antique Jaques Staunton pattern sets of 150 years ago are the best to look at and are superbly practical stylistically.

I don't have much interest in ornate sets.

The black pieces are made from the souls of children.  Everything else is silver.
