I was so excited when I purchased this rug. Now that it is here, the quality for cost is very good, the design is nice but the color leaves a lot to be desired. I am so disappointed. I read the reviews and it seemed to be the blue I was looking for. It is not!  It looks like a turquoise blue with a film over ot. It is so hard to send such a large item, 8X10, back so I am keeping it. I will call it another live lesson. I will never purchase on line again. I hope this will help the next person.
