Love this rug even more than I thought I would!  Needed one for a double pedestal mahogany dining table in our breakfast area.  Antique chair seats are made of needlepoint work by my husband's grandmother.  Sounds too formal for this fun rug, but no.  We definitely have eclectic tastes in our home décor!  Having recently moved into an open, airy, all-white house called for splashes of color all over - kitchen walls in bright green,  architectural accents in adjoining den/foyer painted red - and this rug worked perfectly.  It even (accidentally) coordinated well with the needlepoint seats!  It's well made and sturdy enough to withstand three inside dogs that should be outside.  The only negative to this rug is that I had to order a smaller size than I wanted due to the column near the table, but that the house's fault, not the rug's.  I know we'll enjoy it for years to come.
