KYO HISTORICAL
Originally called « game of the Graces », it is made up of a wooden hoop covered in velvet, that is thrown with two wooden sticks. One can play it alone or in pairs. First invented during the « Restoration » period, it owes its name to the grace of the young women who played it at the time.
Never really abandoned, it reappears around the middle of the 20th century, notably in Italy, where at the time the ring was made of bamboo.
