I bought this rug for my living room to go with my teal-ish/gray-ish sectional sofa. I was initially apprehensive about the color, specifically the blue, as the true color may appear different on the computer screen than in person. The blue on this rug is what I would call a dusty blue. I think it could be paired with light blue colors in a room which would pull out the blue character, or it could be paired with gray room colors which would bring out the gray undertones. Because of this, this is a versatile rug. I would describe the red as a rusty red. Wayfair customer service was excellent when I spoke with them over the phone. My order came much much before the estimated delivery time, which was an added bonus.
