This rug is beautiful. The colors are much deeper and vivid in person. I was slightly disappointed with that because I had thought it would be lighter and go better with my walls. It still looks great though and I was able to bring everything together by the furniture tones. The design is a more streamlined geometric type pattern than the average traditional design u see in oriental rugs. The tones are deep blue, deep sage, cream and an almost burnt sienna orange (minimal).
