This is a gorgeous rug, do not hesitate if you are considering purchasing it. The colors are rich and the feel is luxurious. I have it in a basement rec room over top of tan wall to wall carpet with a brown sofa and red accent chairs and gray/blue wall color. It really pops and I'm very pleased with the purchase. Plus it will be very easy to care for. Non shedding and the slight smell dissipated after 24 hours. Great buy.
