Years ago I bought several sizes of the Light Blue Rug. My family wore out the runner from door to family room. I looked and looked for the blue shade I had previously bought. I found it in some books but they were always higher than I needed to afford. I saw this rug (which was actually longer and fit better than my other runner) checked the price and ordered it. I was concerned that it might not be exactly like the ones I had.... No problem it is beautiful. I am very happy with the rug and my service. If this is your taste in rugs compare and you will order from Wayfair as I did.
