This is a very thick and soft wool rug with muted tones of steel-blue/grey, beige, rust and cinnamon brown. It arrived very quickly, in very good condition. There were no holes or tears. The photo shows the rug to be more red than it really is. The title states the rug is rust...and it really is more rust than red. But, it is very pretty, and works with my decor. I waited for this rug to go on sale....and it did. So, I got a very good value for the $$$$. There are poly rugs for more money. Don't be alarmed when you vaccuum this rug...it does shed alot, but slowly that settles down...and it does not change the way it looks or feels. I used my old wall to wall carpet padding under this rug so it is very plush. Love it.
