My personal opinion is that this rug is more of a royal blue as opposed to a traditional navy blue. I love the quality of it so I am going to keep it, but it may cause me to have to change everything else that is navy in my living room because the difference in shades of blue is obvious and driving me a bit nuts. 

Pros: Great quality, the cream color is raised a bit higher than the blue color which I love
Cons: Closer to a royal blue than a navy blue
