This is a beautiful rug. Feels great underfoot, about 1/2 inch thick. Thanks to all who reviewed stating colours are muted- they are! Pictures above make it look yellowish, but it is blue and cream with some corals and greens accents. It shed quite a bit when we first unrolled it- we got the 9'6" by 13"6', but after one vacuum seems fine. Just hope our cats don't shred it too much! Hard to beat the price for a wool rug!
