My Dream Chess Set

I always wanted a chess set where there were Jihadists and Crusaders, set in green and white jade. The knights would be camels and horses, and the rooks elephants and chariots. Imams and Bishops carrying a crescent moon and cross, and the pawns different kinds of knights. And the queens with a face gown and a tenth century royal quilted gown. And the kings with one of those large head plumes and a crown. That'd be an expensive chess set... but one I've imagined. Do I really want it? Maybe in the next life, because I'd have to basically be a millionaire to own that kind of chess set.
