This rug arrived yesterday and when I opened it, I could not believe the quality and how luscious it looked.  I am placing it in our study under the desk.  It will look perfect with all of my neutral grays I have in the room.  The rug is a beautiful gray color and the swirls are white.  The gray is not too light but looks different shades depending upon the light exposure.  I would buy it again and can't wait to put it in the study.  I wish they had the matching smaller size for my foyer, but it was out of stock.  So I bought a light gray round rug for the foyer and it will match this rug perfectly!  I would not pass this rug up if you are thinking about getting one.
