The print is beautiful. I am a big CLJ fan and ordered 4 of their rugs for my new home. Three were the standard, woven rug. This one is different. It is more like a printed pad, which I had never seen in a 9x12 before. I was initially disappointed, but Ive grown to love having this rug in our bedroom, since it is very comfortable to walk on, especially when placed over carpet. I imagine this would slide quite a bit on solid surface flooring. The color changes with the lighting, which I love. Fits well under a king sized bed.
