I am so happy with this purchase!  I was looking for an authentic Persian rug, but could not find what I was looking for in a 9x12. I was pretty disappointed until I found this similarly designed area rug.  After I read all of the positive reviews, I decided to place my order and hope for the best. I am so glad I did! Though i was a little worried when the rug arrived folded and rolled, the creases came out immediately after I unrolled it on the floor.   This rug is so stunning in person, and is probably the softest rug I have found. If you are looking for a gorgeous deep red colored rug with amber and black accents, this is the one for you!
