This is a quality rug. The tribal pattern makes it less formal than an oriental rug and nice for a casual room. The colors are very cheerful. Beige background, a bright yellow/gold border, rusts which pop and a dab of pale blue. Closer to the monitor colors than other rugs I have ordered. I have 2 Safavieh wool rugs already and they do come with a chemical odor which lessens and eventually goes away. If you have chemical sensitivities you may want to avoid. I will not order the large size of this rug because for me, it really "pops" and is a bit too bright.I don't want my room to scream "rug".
