My order only took a few days to receive and the rug was just what I expected.  It does have softly muted colors in the tones of antique bronze, soft blue and very small and subtle hints of green in the pattern.  It's a very thick rug so lays down smoothly and since I've used in on top of carpet in a bedroom it doesn't need any additional pad underneath.  I love the rich and layered look I get from rugs!
