The other reviewers have said this is off color (seagreen).. however, I have received the rug and it is exactly as it is in the picture. It's a very light, almost heather gray. The design on the rug really  pops and it's absolutely  beautiful. The only downside is that it sheds, but other rugs I have bought have shed for the first couple of months and have stopped after sweeping them a few times a week. I have also spilled some things on it and it seems pretty sturdy and stain resistant, can easily pick up liquids without staining it. I was worried about that because of the light colors, but it really is a beautiful rug and can pull quite a lot of colors together.
