This is a beautiful soft subtly patterned rug.  It is has shading from  a dark aqua to a true blue with ivory and beige interwoven in the design.  I have several shades of blue in my room including navy and blue grey and this blends well with all of them due to the shading of the yarn and the light on the pile.  The only reason I didn't give it 5 starts is that it was folded back before being rolled and the crease is slow in coming out of the rug although is less evident every day.
