I've read reviews about this rug here and on other web sites, and many people stated the colors were much darker than pictured.  I checked out the rug on 3 different computer monitors and it looked the same, having lighter, vibrant colors.  But, what I received what not what was pictured online.  I agree with the others who said it is much darker than pictured.  Mine has no light tan, light yellow or light blue.  Instead it is dark brown, dark gold and a very dark turquoise blue along with navy blue and burgundy.  It is very, very dark.  But, it is still a nicely made rug, and on the upside it certainly won't show dirt easily.  Just wish the online colors were more accurate.  As pictured the vibrant colors make it a gorgeous rug, but in person the colors are just "okay," nothing special.  MHO.
