This rug is very soft and the color is beautiful.  It does lean towards a turquoise blue, but certainly  not as much green as a true turquoise.  The color shown is pretty true to the actual color of the rug.  I bought this for my dining room and the pop of color on the floor is just what I wanted. I also purchased the other rug pad because we have wood floors.  Delivery was in two days.  Everything about this purchase was great.
