The rug is much darker than portrayed online. I checked colors out on several pc's but the picture showed very light center.  The rug is slate grey with rust teardrops.  
That said, the rug material itself is wonderful.  The pile was deep and very cushy.  
The color won't work so it will be going back.  Be mindful when disassembling packaging that you might be sending it back.....thank goodness for large rolls of tape!
