I Have Owned A Large Rug And Small Rug In This Same Pattern For Over A Year, Both High-Quality And Beautiful. However, After Receiving The Runner, With Disappointment, It Is Apparent That They Have Lowered Their Standard For Quality. The Yarn Used (For Lack Of A Better Word) Seems To Be Thicker Than With My Other Two Rugs, Which, Sadly, Sacrifices The Pattern Detail And Over All High-Quality Look. This Rug Will Be Drop-Shipped. I Purchased This Same Runner From Another Online Store, Also Drop-Shipped, With Same Construction And Textile Compromises Mentioned Above And Also Damaged With Obvious Frays On Rug Border. I Returned That One And Ordered The Same Runnner Here At Wayfair Hoping That The Rug I Returned Was Defective Rather Than What They Were Turning Out, These Days. While This One Arrived, Undamaged, This Runner Has The Same Lower-Quality Look. If You Are Purchasing This Particular Rug For The First Time, And Not Comparing It To Another, You May Find It More Than Satisfactory.
