Chess sets supposed to be regular but useful for Fairy chess?

Do chess sets exist that are meant to be regular, but are so differently shaped that they could be used for representing Fairy chess pieces?

I got the idea here.

But the same site has "Modern Staunton" and "Berliner". Expensive, but not that much. Made of wood and thus nicely fitting in the sphere of wooden chess pieces - to my humble opinion. As for normal chess, playing with such a set would be the same kind of self-flagellation as listening to Schönberg, again to my humble opinion. But I see nice potential non-regular pieces among them.

In this video at 5.17 we can see a strange chess set. I remember asking what it was somewhere and got the response that it is also meant to be a regular set.
