The color and weight are as pictured and described.   However, I washed and dried the blanket before putting it on the bed.  I have never seen any item give off so much lint in the dryer, and the blanket shrank a couple inches.  

I would not purchase the blanket had I to do it over again.  

Pros: The color is a true camel as described.  The weight is perfect for a summer blanket.
Cons: Shrinks!
