The colours are really beautiful! However I think the rug looks a bit cheap overall. I think it's the finish on the edges - it needs a fringe or something at the ends. It sort of looks like a rug cut from a larger rug with a cheap binding on the edge. Overall I'm ok with it but a wee bit disappointed as the other reviews were so positive! Part of the problem may be the size - it's a hallway runner. This issue would be less noticeable on a large rug in a room as you'd see more rug and less edges...
