When you shop online and don’t get to see or touch the item(s) you are considering, you are really taking a leap of faith.  This rug is perfect in every way, maybe even better than we had hoped.  The price was ridiculously reasonable.  It looks like a real vintage Persian.  The colors were true to pics and description.  Ordering and delivery were flawless.  I am not an impulsive shopper and thought about this rug for a while  before buying.  I can tell you it seemed like I looked at every rug for sale anywhere.  This one was the perfect colors, pattern, size, price and hard wearing.  Everything!  We love it!
