A lot going on in this rug but it can also be taken as a neutral.  It really gives the room an interesting look.  The colors of blue, green and tan are very close color-wise and end up being  somewhat muted. The border is beautiful.! I looked at hundreds of rugs and actually returned 2 before settling on this one.  It is also partially made of wool which makes it heavier so it doesn't move around as much.  I also bought the smaller size for my entry way.  The prices were also great! Very happy with my purchases :) (Note that the colors on the smaller rug are more intense than the larger rug.  I bought the 3'3" X 5 and the 6'6" x 9)
