Was not prepared for the high quality of the blanket, it feels and weighs like real fur, it is heavy. It does have both lighter and darker pelt colors in brown/gold tones and it changes with the light or the foldings of the blanket, so I can see it blending with many furniture/wall/bedding colors.  I like the big professional fur box it came in, and also the large drawstring bag that was supplied for storage over the summer.  This is as close to real fur as it could possibly be, except for the price.
