To be clear, it isn’t carpet at all. It is very large wicker knots that keep popping out and looks kinda weird. It seems like something that would go in a sunroom more than a bedroom. The tassels on the side are over 6 inches long and thick as rope. It’s not a bad rug, it’s just different from the picture. I wish I wouldn’t have bought it but I’ll keep it because it’s not worth the hassle of returning.
