Pink Shmink....this rug is awesome! Another customer described it perfectly when she said it looked like it is an authentically vintage distressed red rug. I purchased a runner for the kitchen...and truth be told it was a worrisome wait that i'd have pink in  my house....but love it so much I'm buying a large rug for the living room space of our open concept house. We both like this buy. I will be the perfect hit of colour in our house. Thank you Wayfair
