Love, love, love this rug........ so pretty and eye catching, bought it for a morning room, super cute.  I originally ordered the 5 ft but had to return it as it actually only measured 5' 9" (same as the rug pad which showed fractionally beneath it)!  Re-ordered in the 6ft and it's perfect.  Love it so much I'm going to order an 8 x 10" for my living room.
