Not ones that always roll 6's!

Personal definition:

Decent size – 20mm or so.
Mass – no lightweight rubbish. I want something heavy. Heavier the better in fact.

Colour and corners negotiable.

I love my set from Toofatlardies, and Peter Pig's ones are also very nice. I think they're both about 17-18mm, so a little smaller than your optimum, but nice heft.

Now there is a candidate TNE2300.
Are they big enough?

Yes! Musket ball dice. I have the same kind as the link above (they sell them at historical sites too) and they are about normal size. I also have a pair of home made ones from a .50 caliber ball. Have never used them much to game with, but they make cool marker dice! Here is a tutorial for making your own:

Las Vegas Casino dice are supposed to be the most neutral in the world. Big and chunky too. I bought some form the MGM Grand a few years ago.
