At first I was going to return this bc it looked black in the picture but after reading the reviews, someone said it was dark green. That it is not! Ugh So I didn't have time to return bc I was moving. So I ended up having to keep it. But it ended up working out. I just had to bring the rug in with other background colors. So it doesn't look terrible with my green chairs. I'm liking it. Glad I kept it.
