I studied area rugs carefully on the web and this one looked like it would work beautifully in my family room, the grey and tan tones blending beautifully with my stone fireplace, so I ordered it. Sadly the actual rug isn't even close to the picture. The pattern is correct but that's where the resemblance ends. If you're looking for China blue and cream instead of grey and tan, this is your rug. It is large and was a nuisance to pack up and ship back. Sorry I have to give this bad review. It was a nice rug, just not properly represented.
