I got the round - its actually darker than the pictures (Id say murkier). It does have that large gold (not yellow) swirl across it. Very little of anything teal green - definitely turquoise. The lighter parts look like areas are worn down, but its just the lack of color - it took me a few days to get used to that. It arrived tightly rolled in heavy plastic, so theres a stiff flip on one edge about 6 (from being inside the roll) which needs to be flattened down. But I like the rug.
