For a piece of rug with the price over $500, I assumed I would get a decent piece. Well, It looks fine though the color is not that bright compared with the picture here however as I have been walking over it I felt pieces of chalks woven inside the threats. There are all over within the rug and you can feel them as you walk over the rug. Regardless of that I also found in one area with the piece of chalk within that the threats are torn and basically the is a big hole in the carpet. I could take a picture of it. I wont ever buy a rug from here. That's it. I think I wasted over 500 dollars for not paying for a quality Persian rug. Thats the price you pay when you buy junky chinese, pakistani or indian ones.
