I looked online at rugs for over 2 weeks to find one that had just the right color tones, was not too stiff and thick and was neutral but different than the typical jute rugs and offered an elegance. I kept coming back to this Ankita rug. I ordered it and the rug was delivered by FedEx in just 2 days, way ahead of schedule! It came well packaged, rolled in 2 layers of plastic wrapping.  I couldn't wait to open it.  I LOVE this rug!! It is perfect on my living room wide pine plank floor and works well with my leather sofa. It is elegant and country chic. The color tones of honey, gold, beige and cream tie the look I was trying to achieve together.  The rug is soft and nice to walk on. Not prickly or stiff. No natural fiber odor at all. I bought the rug pad which will arrive in a day or two but couldn't wait to unroll it and review this rug. It lays flat immediately. Absolutely 5 stars!
