I've been trying to to get wool out of my house due to the cruelty involved in producing it (just look it up!), and I've been looking for something that would appeal to a former wool lover. I kept coming back to this rug....For the low price, I decided to just order and see. Soft, and for under a table it doesn't slide around. It would on just a bare floor, so you'd need rug tape, or a pad. This is the 5X7. It has no odor. There is grey and very light bluish grey, taupe, cream, and a salmon light rust. Vacuuming one way, it's darker, the other, lighter. The medallions are black , but blend very well. Thanks Loloi rugs, and Great Offer Stock, shipped fast and bound well! Cruelty free microfiber♥ I would guess the Ivory version of this rug is nice too. My 40 year old Cockatoo, Henri, they don't like change too much, was not sure yet, how he felt....☺
