I’ve had similar problems with expensive sets. Not designed by chess players. You’re supposed to figure out if Millard Fillmore is a Bishop or Martin Van Buren is a Knight in the middle of a one minute game.
The one that looks like a big toe is the queen and all the little toe ones are pawns. The rest are pretty much free form except for the bishop. It has a hang nail.
I know the feeling, Sedgwick Nuttingham and Robert Thompson at Board One! That’s why I stick to Staunton sets (even my little pocket set at least mimics Staunton design)….

Apparently all the pieces look like miniature Easter Island statues.

I thought Sedgewick was trying to rook his opponent.

Evidently, Sedgwick is being smart and careful by not letting the castaway have sharp objects.

Maybe the bishop lost faith and took up arms?
