I really love the colors in this rug. I was concerned the beige colors may make it look too much like putty. But it really tied the room together nicely. My main complaint is that depending on which way the fibers are laying, you can see a sheen (or shine as some people called it). I think over time it will start to drive me nuts as it almost makes the carpet look white or silver from certain angles. Otherwise, it's a beautiful pattern.
