the colors are pretty close in the description. I've had the rug for about 6 days and it still has some wrinkles in it from shipping tightly bound. There is one 'line' that I am not sure is a wrinkle or a manufacture issue. I wish there was a round matching rug to go with this one for my dining area as they run together.  

Pros: good value, pretty with a striped couch
Cons: wrinkles in the rug. I think they will settle down in time.
