I had assumed that draughts was played everywhere with flat counters, but some local traditions survive:
In Turkey, you might play with elegant flat-topped pawns (pic: By Public – Anonym – Demokrat Gazete – www.demokratgazete.com/idug-ve-keser-den-dama-turnuvasi/27790/, CC BY-SA 4.0, commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=109100665)
And in parts of the Middle East, you see domed pieces in complementary colours (pic: Kuwait News)
This is Turkish draughts, played on an unchequered 8×8 board, with vertical and horizonal movement of pieces.
