I was very excited about getting this rug. However, when it came it was not what I expected. The yarns were very shiny. While the description said it was made of wool and polyester, I'd say the amount of wool was very minimal. Finally, look carefully at the website image. In most cases the rug is skewed, borders are partial, or something else is off. That is what you should expect in the rug you get. The one I received had a partial border pattern on one side and a full one on the other, which made it look very unbalanced and odd on the floor.
