Looked nice when it arrived and the fabric is soft and silky... however, the rug constantly sheds fibres every single day. There is also a noticeable patch of around 4cm that is devoid of any fibres at all. The amount of shedding is ridiculous. The fibres are all around the house and I am having to pick them up or vacuum the entire house considerably more than usual. Very disappointing for such an expensive rug.
