As noted by others, the colors are true to what is pictured; we find it quite handsome on our deck. We did buy a rug pad for it as the polypropylene material is slippery!  Still waiting for the kinks to ease out of it - but already it makes moving our deck chairs, table and umbrella stand much easier. One 2 inch area of the outer trim was frayed. It wasn''t worth sending the entire rug back.
