This rug looked beautiful in the photos; however upon arrival and unpackaging, my heart sank. The quality is far below what I expected, and resembles a bath mat. The colors are far duller in person than in the images posted to Perigold's sight. Also, the craftsmanship is some of the worst I have ever seen in a hand-knotted rug. The knot count is listed as 100 knots per square inch, but I will wager it's more like 20-30 per square inch. I was so hoping this would be a good, fit and I am deeply disappointed.
