My guest quarters has an Asian theme. I found the perfect shower curtain for the bathroom but soon ran into trouble trying to match the red background of the shower curtain to a nice set of towels. These run a bit more on the burgundy side than true red, and the pictures posted are their true color. I was hoping for a bit more on the red side, but they are a wine or burgundy in color. Still nice towels and the black stripes helped a great deal in tieing them in with my shower curtain. I'll probably keep looking for perfect but these will work until that happens. So trust your eyes with these, they are very pretty.
