This rug is really beautiful and really soft, but the Disappointing part is how shiny the carpet is. It shows footprints in vacuum marks in every direction, and from some angles, it’s so shiny that the light hits it and it removes the vibrancy of the colors and the patterns. Really ugly from some angles and way too muted! In the right light it’s perfect, but that only happens a small portion of the time. Disappointing and probably too much of a hassle to return.
