They are a beautiful red/burgundy color with a "leaves" type of pattern.  My Mom bought a Nourison Summerfield area rug for her living room, and the pillow color is a good contrast to her brown carpet with burgundy leaves.  It was the perfect Mother's Day present and she called me up later to say that she just loves the pillows.  Thanks, Wayfair!

Pros: They look nice on a brown couch.
Cons: None.
