This is a classic carrom & pichenottes board (handmade in Quebec, Canada) that is 30.75 inches and has a playing surface of 29 inches. The American-style carrom board has wide pockets (6"x 3.5") which make it easier to shoot into the corner holes. It comes with an abundance of carrom / pichenotte and pinnochi rings (including a drawstring pouch), sliding powder, and 2 optional carrom cues and a 12 inch lazy susan.
This game is a combination of two classic board games - carrom / pichenotte and pinnochi. The object of this "finger pool" game is to strike a larger disc so that it contacts lighter discs and propels them into 1 of 4 corner pockets. But you must sink your pieces before the opponent sinks theirs. Plus, the queen must be pocketed and "covered" by pocketing one of one's own pieces on the same or a subsequent shot. It is a very historic game, first played in India.
