You could try uxterm. It is provided by the xterm package.

Another method is to install xfonts-efont-unicode and use that font for
xterm.  For that purpose, I have these lines in ~/.Xdefaults:

xterm*VT100.foreground:  black
xterm*VT100.background:  white
xterm*VT100.cursorColor: gray
xterm*VT100.geometry: 85x40
xterm*VT100.font: -efont-fixed-medium-r-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*

As for the size (16 here) you can choose from 10, 12, 14, 16 and 24.
