My couch and loveseat are a chocolate brown.  This rug makes them “pop” because it is so vibrant….just as vibrant as it looks on the computer.  It is “streaked” as it shows online, but that just makes it blend with my other teal accessories.  It also has darker shades of teal in the pattern.  And speaking of the picture, my rug has the slightly curved lines in border pattern on one side only…just like the online picture shows. I was able to put that edge under my couch, so it doesn’t matter to me, but you might to you. The rubber backing makes the rug stay put. And, the rug was light enough for my husband to carry in the house by himself!  I am very happy with this purchase!
