The silver definitely has blue tint to it like other reviewers mentioned and the base color is beige not white.  This worked well in our room as we have a navy sofa.  If you have a pet that digs their nails into rugs/carpets (as our cat does) - be aware that the rug is looped and the loops will pull out.  This obviously isn't the rug's fault - we never had a looped rug and didn't think about it.. lesson learned!
