This is a lovely ivory and multi colored, swirl patterned rug purchased to go in front of an ivory sectional. It complements the sectional perfectly and gave just the pop of color under the coffee table that was needed. I purchased pillows that picked up the olive tones and light tan swirls from the rug. The other swirls in the rug are actually dark red/cranberry color, not dark brown. I will get two more cranberry colored pillows to finish out the look. A very good purchase at a reasonable price and I highly recommend it.
The rug is nice, very good quality, no shedding whatsoever...however, I bought it to match my brown/beige decor. The rug is olive green and in different shades of olive green, definitely not brown. The picture on greatofferstock.com makes it look brown and the description "Sand Beige, Grey, Cream, Dark Brown, Light Beige, Bronze" does not mention olive green at all! Returning a rug of this size is such a hassle:(
I sure don't know how a photo from a manufacturer can be so "off" but it is the same on every rug site for this rug. I was grateful for all the reviews posted in every size on this rug. I had already made one mistake from a different rug company that I sent back. Luckily, the price on the two rugs (4x6 and 12' runner) I got from Great Offer Stock made up for the difference. Colors: To me, the background is a lightly varigated medium gray although at times it has a green cast to it depending on the light. IMO, it is NOT moss green as the photo shows. No where near it. The antler shapes are a light beige/tan (not cream/ivory) - definitely on the brown side. These shapes really make the rug stand out. The blue is also a varigated stone blue on the darker side (definitely not light blue). The dark green petals on the more circular flowers is DARK GREEN - darker than the gray background. The other green on the flower shapes is a lighter olive/spring green. The bits of brown are most closely accurate in the inaccurate photo; I would call them nutmeg or cinnamon. The lighter small dots and petal/fern frond shapes are about 50% lighter than the nutmeg/cinnamon bits. Someone else called the colors "drab" and they could be considered that if the order was based on the photos. For me, they are rich in color, pattern and texture. I didn't want the lighter colors of the photo. I just repainted my north-facing room walls to a light khaki to work with furniture in dominant green solids and some blue/turquoise, plus a side room with denim walls. For my decor, this rug is perfect. It's stylistic/transitional/contemporary and won't show dirt in my entry/hallway areas (on top of mahogany wood floors). I hope it will hold up as the loop style has a tendency to come loose (based on experience). It's a good fit with nearby rugs that are more traditional in nature. It also doesn't seem to shed as much as the thicker-pile rugs by Safavieh. My advice is to read all the reviews for all the sizes of this rug. You could end up being as delighted as I am with it.
To my olive green couch. The colors are bright enough to make my plain couch pop. The material is thick, good quality...very happy!
