Beautiful rug.  Exactly the right thing for my entry.  Exactly as shown on website.  It does shed a bit but nothing I can't live with.  I think because it is so thickly woven.  I purchased a pad for underneath, however it brings the rug up to high under my door so I removed the pad.  It slips a bit so perhaps I will find a thinner pad to put beneath it.  There is a shadow in the picture due to sun streaming in my glass entry doors.
