The photo on line presents the blue as a mid-dark denim but in person it appears more dark greyish navy.  But b/c I needed a square rug for under my round table to accommodate more pull out room for chairs that face each square corner, this rug will be kept.  My only complaint is that it came rolled up without a tube and b/c of the interior edge was very tightly rolled and flattened, I now have a series of folds across the entire rug, which has been layingflat for weeks, but the folds are still there...time to get out a steamer now, which I was hoping to avoid.  The pattern has a mottled non-descript design that gives the over all rug more subtle blending of color and shapes.  Perfect for needs despite the few flaws already mentioned.
