This rug is the Most beautiful rug I’ve owned. It’s perfect for the room because it unifies the open concept rooms with its blend of colors. It’s just thick enough for the high use area which we lay down on frequently, but not so thick or textured that we trip over it. We have it on light grey and soft white tile. The carpet tone is lighter even though it has dark tones in the rug. It is unique that it seems light, but the pattern does not look dirty.
