I love this rug!  It has a faded damask pattern over a beige background.  The colors are warm and muted and can match a variety of decor.  The rug is trimmed in a blue approximately 1 inch border.  I have 1 dog, 2 cats and 3 kids and this rug has held up well to the large amount of traffic through my living room.  It is easy to clean without unraveling or fading.  We have spilled drinks on the rug and have had no issues cleaning it up.  The color scheme and pattern make it easy to disguise any spots or stains until I can get it deep cleaned.
