I had ordered this rug in the black and ivory ....Well the black is more of a charcoal color and the ivory is also like a blend of something other then a true ivory. That is the reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 stars.   I was hoping for a true black and ivory.  I decided to keep it as it looks fine at the end of my bed not where I had originally had planned for but it works and I'll keep it.  The quality of the rug is really nice it feels good under foot and it doesn't need a rug pad.
