Great rug for the price. Not as soft as I would've liked, but at the same time not hard. Not as messy looking in person as the small pic may suggest. Description says among pearl necklaces, flowers, and crowns there are ballet slippers. The "ballet slippers" are pretty bad renditions of the real thing. Looks like a kidney bean to me. Like I said overall for the money, great buy. Pros: Great value, construction, light-weight, & color Cons: Little rough, Kidney beans do not pass as ballet slippers per the description.
