This is a nice quality thick wool rug. The problem is when you take a picture the contrast makes the colors more vibrant and shimmery. In reality the colors are much more dull and traditional. It works well in the room that I've put it in so I'm very happy with it. The 4 stars are because of my initial disappointment in the colors and also the thickness of the navy blue border. I think a more neutral color or thinner boarder would be much prettier.
