Do not be fooled.  This rug is SO, SO, SO much lighter than what it appears in the photo.  From one direction you can see some color and from another it just fades away into a very light silver.  There is some teal but so little that it disappears without making any impact.   There is some terra cotta but it appears like deep gold.  I'm not saying it is not a beautiful rug.  It is. It is elegant and feminine,   But in no way does it bring the punch of color I was hoping for in this room.  Also, any disruption of the nap leaves "footprints" all over.   If you are looking for anything other than a pale silver, elegant rug......look elsewhere.
