This rug was perfect for our dining room. I was concerned that the color was "silver" (based on the name) but it came out to be a very nice, light grey - with no blue undertones! The rug is the perfect thickness, making it sturdy enough to be put under a dining table, but not so thick that one can't push a chair in and out. The only drawback to this rug is that it is not as ornately detailed as pictured, although once the table and chairs were placed on top of it, one can't really notice the lack of detail. All in all, a very great purchase.
