The rugs are as pictured, the only thing missing from the description was the length of the nap/shag.  As I had intended to place one of them (I ordered 2) in front of a door this info would have been a big help as the shag was so high the door would not open.  Problem solved by placing the smaller rug in front of the door, but this was not the effect I had envisioned.  Other than that, the rugs are high quality and look very nice.
