The colors in this are a brick red with areas of "real red",  a smattering of turcoise, aqua. a bright gold yellow, several shades of beige etc.  It is bright  and cheery.  We really like it as it picks up everything we could use in a room and even though it is a definite focal point, it pulls your eyes to all the other similar colors in the room.  It is soft on the feet (we bought the pad) and has a loop construction.  Honestly, I wasn't sure about it at first, but my husband was.  I like it better every day.  Hope I can add photo later.
