Product Details
Pagade is an Indian race game popularised in the west as Ludo, and in the US, as ‘Parcheesi - the Royal game of India’. Great kings like Akbar & Mummadi Wodeyar were connoisseurs of this game & there are probable references to this game in the epic Mahabharata too. Even to this day, Fatehpur Sikri has a large garden version of the game. Kavade brings this historical game in a beautiful form, with a hand embroidered game board, wooden pawns and a pair of wooden dice (daala): all packed in a fabric pouch. The game set is available in multiple colour combinations, all beautiful! If you prefer a specific combination, do mention that while placing the order, we will send that if available. #pagade #ludo #chaupad #chaupar #chopat #pacheesi #dayam #dayakattam
