I did my research and was counting on more subtle muted blue colors with hints of navy, beige, and gray based on the description and other reviews. I feel they were very misleading. This rug is not subtle or muted, it is BRIGHT turquoise with hints of grey and BRIGHT royal blue! No navy, no beige, no muted soft colors. It just doesn't go in my house, and now is costing me almost half its price just to return it. Be warned of the TRUE colors and make sure that a loud, bright turquoise rug goes with your decor BEFORE you order and go through this headache like I did!
