This rug is absolutely beautiful! The colors are bright and the pattern is very attractive. I bought this rug for outdoor use, as it was described, but after I received it, the packaging stated indoor use. Our patio is covered, so I kept it and is is working great. I would not recommend leaving it in the rain as the the pattern area of the rug is a nice thick yarn, therefore, I am not confident the would weather well. It is a stunning rug!
