This rug is beautiful!  I needed for a lobby area - I needed something smaller and very thin so people wouldn't trip over it.  This is perfect!  The color is interesting - if you turn the rug in the light one way, it looks almost white.  If you spin it around so the light hits it differently, it matches the color in the photo.  I was a little shocked at first, but it's how the light hits it.  See photos attached for color.
