Rug is busier than picture reflects, lots of texture and stripes have a lot of pattern. Background color is a tan/linen color not white/ivory. That said, I do actually like the look of the rug and have solid off white couches so the pattern is fine. BUT when I unpacked the rug there was a strong musty smell. I didn’t see any reviews about odor so left it overnight and now most of the house smells like that. Moved rug to outdoor patio, sprayed couches with Febreze (which I don’t normally use but desperate) and washed floors with vinegar. Hoping rug is off gassing and house will air out and I can bring it back in. Gave 3 stars since this seems to be a one off?
