Gorgeous! And the design picked through looks amazing with all my vining plants in that room. The carpet is thick and like other hand-tufted wool rugs it does shed quite a bit, but nothing terrible. The color is what’s so amazing it’s kindof like a dark duck egg or light, dusty teal but it’s just really saturated in color. The design picked out is in an ivorybeige color so nice  neutral. I really can’t get over the beauty of this rug, the photos don’t do it’s richness any justice. It’s in the brightest, quite sunny room of the house and still manages to brighten it. Every person who’s seen this rug has loved it. It’s a really rich, lux rug.
