@schlecter saidMy favorite is a set bought in 1983, similar to the pieces in the you tube vid below, though smaller. King size 3 1/4 inch (about 8.25 cm) It's been my correspondence, and study set for a long time now. Probably not big enough for OTB tournament play, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I love that video, I think the chess set is a Staunton.
Not sure what Staunton but looks Amazing.
I think could be something like this video as well
