Although the title contains "red", and it may appear to be red on your screen, there is no red in this rug. It looks like the color of a terra cotta pot (that orangey brown shade). When I opened the rug, it looks old, probably because all of the colors are muted/faded as though they were left outside in the sun for a while. Also, the rug has a noticeable odor. The odor could probably be aired out over time. Bottom line, this does not suit my decor (I thought it had red & teal in it, but it does not), so this thing is going back.
