The Fewell Antiquities rug is absolutely beautiful!  I couldn't be happier with my purchase.  The rug was delivered on a sturdy cardboard roll without damage.  It rolled out flat immediately and no odor at all.  The colors and texture are very rich looking.  There are multiple colors in the rug ranging from cream to a sandy or almost light golden brown to charcoal to black depending on which way the pile of the rug is shifted.  It's so soft and silky on bare feet. The rug is just what the office needed along with the "Copper and Nickel" horse canvas from Wayfair as well.
