This is a very nice looking area rug.  Immediately flattened out and the color was perfect, not quite the gold tones in the first photo (that's what I was hoping).  There is a bit of a grassy smell which I'm hoping will go away with some more airing out.  It is a bit too small for under the dining room table which is where I have it right now (my bad, certainly not the rug's).  But I'm determined to make it work.
