The rug is lovely and the photos show it well. A few cautions 1) it is very thin and will absolutely need a thick pad underneath 2) it is a flat weave, nothing fundamentally wrong with that but I just didn’t expect that when I ordered it 3) the design isn’t woven, it’s stamped on top, again a very inexpensive way to make a rug. If you’re looking for something that doesn’t cost a pretty penny, it’s nice. We shall see how it holds up to heavy traffic and use.
