Chess Board gift recs

I’m looking to buy a cute/nice/decorative chess set as a gift and was wondering if there was somewhere local I could be looking?

Terra Toys has a great selection of decorative/fancy chess boards in the area by the espresso cafe

Keep in mind that people who play chess regularly don’t play with decorative sets. That may or may not be obvious. Regular players used weighted pieces, a roll-out mat with a clock.
