The color of the rug is not a deep solid navy as depicted in the pictures.  It has a washed-out,  very sun faded appearance to it spots.  It didn't catch this in any of the reviews before I ordered it.  When I re-looked at them after receiving my rug , I saw a few people mention that it wasn't a deep navy, and one mentioned it was almost turquoise,  but nothing mentioned the faded appearance directly.  It is a very good quality rug, but not the look I wanted.  It is ivory with washed out blue tones.   I gave it 3 stars because of my disappointment in the color, not the quality.
