We ordered this rug to replace another Loloi rug that we love but was too dark for our new house. This new collab is beautiful! It's a very nice light ivory with a subtle plaid pattern. I got nervous looking at some of the up close pictures, but in person it reads extremely neutral and clean. It is very soft and I like the small fringe edging along the shorter sides. It comes folded not rolled, so I am still trying to get the creases out and for it to lay flat (so excuse the pictures with furniture all awry, it just arrived today). We have lighter couches but I think it would be gorgeous with a leather sofa or even a gray or brown color too. I told my husband the bad news is now I want to order it for the adjoining living room too!! If anything it photographs darker/more contrast than in real life.
