I love this rug! Initially I wanted the 4’x4’ round because it would have been a better fit. That size was all sold out so I went with a 6’x6’. Now I wished I’d gone bigger since I’ve now rearranged the area. However, it works. It’s a rich red. Not bright but not too dark. It’s thick, hasn’t shed as much as others describe. Maybe because it’s not walked on. In the online photo, the pattern appears to be gold. It doesn’t have gold in it but the use of an off white tuft gives the appearance of a bit of gold glitter. Quality is top notch. And since I’m an advocate of placing rugs on top of rugs, the thicker the better the stack works. I’d highly recommend this rug.

Updated 1519- so I did decide to go with the 7’6 x 9’ rectangular. Amazing quality. Thick and color is pretty true to the photo. Now I’m thinking I’ll just keep the round one. Found a spot for it in the living room.
