Really pretty rug and the price was incredible! I hate spending a lot on rugs because after all, you walk on them. The colors are more muted as you go towards the center of the rug. The border of the rug has the most color. So glad it doesn’t have tassels on it! The colors are aqua, cream, beige, rust, pink, gold and a deep taupe. The carpet came rolled but it’s flattening out really well after about an hour. The one end may take a bit longer to flatten. We live near the beach so I love the light airy look of this rug.
