I love this rug. It’s better in person!  It is beautiful and looks more expensive than it is.  Like others said.. depending on which direction you are looking at it determines if it appears to be a lighter cream, or darker shades of beige, but any direction it is beautiful. I was worried about it being too light in color because i have two cats and also was worried about it being in a high traffic area but its not too light at all. It is thin, so definitely worth ordering a rug pad, but once that is in place it appears to be a thicker more expensive rug. Colors are cream, tan, beige, With a dark navy inlay, which gives it a subtle, but interesting texture. The neutral colors easily go with anything else neutral. Happy with the purchase!
