An interesting design that adds spark to our room! The rug is thick enough to use without a pad, was well packaged for shipping and so the edges were not damaged, and there is no detectable odor. The picture on-line had made some of the leaves appear light green to me, but the actual rug has only a hint of green, which works better with our light blue walls. The rug appears to be well made, is dense, and has a nice texture. We’re very pleased with it!
