As of right now, I’m not sure how to feel about the carpet. The design is as shown. The silver color is definitely darker than what is shown in the pictures. Is almost like a bluish/silver which works better for what I was looking for my formal living room. What bothers me is the way the carpet was wrapped upon arrival. Lots of gold which created lots of deep creases that, I hope disappear after laying it flat. In the pictures I saw of other reviewers, the carpets didn’t look as wrinkled and as creased as mine. Will update the review in a month.
