I love these rugs. I have two of them. One is in a bright room with light walls, the other is in a basement room with darker toned walls. The rugs look great in both locations. In a brighter room the yellows and oranges really pop, in the darker basement the earthy tones of blue and green pop more. The only complaint is that since they are wool they shed, a lot. Be prepared to use a carpet sweeper or vacuum daily for the first month. It's been a few months and they still shed but not nearly as much as the first few weeks.
