The coloring on this rug was not what I expected. The photo show the turquoise being lightest in hue in the center then darker at the end. Actually, the carpet is a bright mint green halfway through to the end. So, it didn't match my color scheme at all, which requires the deeper teal/turquoise. I will say though, the quality is great and the carpet is soft and plush. It was my first time ordering with AM and I would consider it again. If I could find a rug with similar pile, material, and feel then my toes and I would be happy.
