I was hesitant to order an expensive rug on line, but I could not find anything that looked as nice in my local stores. I was not disappointed. The rugs arrived sooner that expected, was packaged well, and delivered by UPS. It is beautiful. It looks just like the photo and the colors are perfect for our new dining room. It needed vacuumed to remove some fuzz that you would expect with a handwoven wool rug. A few fibers needed trimmed, but that was expected. I am planning on purchasing tables for my living room as a result of this experience.
