This rug is looks exactly like how it is in the picture and is a perfect match with our other rug. We have a big one room with both living and dinning area and wanted a new rug with matching colors with our previous one. It's not really a black and white, but a black and beige, and that's exactly how we wanted. What I don't love however is that this rug is very flimsy kind of rug, in a way that it doesn't stay flat all the time, and that's why I don't give a 5 stars review. But it is a great accent for my home and was shipped very quickly!
