This rug is not 100% Wool as advertised, which was a major factor in buying it; but did not find out until receipt. The rug tag underneath the rug says 50% Viscose, 50% Wool. Other than that, there was some apprehension in ordering it because you cannot see it in real life before receiving it. But, fortunately, it really worked out. It's a heavy, solidly built rug for high traffic area that feels thick and soft (not plushy soft though). It's medium gray with silver tinge that works great with natural / neutral colors. So if you like the modern look and this color, I would recommend this rug (mine was 8x11).
