I searched everywhere for the perfect blue rug.  This one fit the bill - colorwise, price and size.  We have a huge room and ordered the 12 x 18.  The pattern in the rug is just what I was hoping for, not too traditional.  The background is an oatmeal color with a subtle gray mixed in.  The blues are two different colors - a navy and a medium blue which leans a bit on the turquoise side.  Rug is super soft, does not show foot prints.  Was very please when we unrolled it and the folds settled out immediately.  We put a rug pad underneath.  No shedding.  100% happy with this purchase.
