We LOVE this rug; it shows up beautifully in the central corridor of our Mid-Century Modern home in Oklahoma City.  The rich colors in it are perfect for our decor, and the quality of this Indian-loomed rug is simply OUTSTANDING.  We strongly suggest that -- as with all good rugs -- you use a high quality rug pad beneath it. (This will not only prevent rug wear, but will also provide a cushion for your feet AND keep the rug itself from slipping.)  Our Bryonie runner? We keep it on well finished, walnut-stained hardwood floors.  Just PERFECT. Sooooo glad we made this purchase of a very modestly priced, well made, and incredibly attractive runner for our hallway.
