I ordered this rug on a Sunday and it was delivered the following Friday, so I have had it only a few days. I was reluctant to order something this large unseen, on my very first order with Overstock, but the rug coordinates beautifully with my breakfast nook curtains. I would describe the border and center background areas as being a beigey ivory and other colors in the rug are blue-green, rust, mossy green and gold. It has a slight odor, but nothing objectionable, and it is flattening out nicely. I vacuumed it immediately, and have not noticed any shedding. This wool rug is a great value for the price. I am very pleased with Overstock's fast service and product quality and was anxious to place my second order, which I have.

I just got the rug last night. It is so beautiful and soft/plush, too. It is slightly more muted as mentioned in the previous review. There is a fair amount of green, gold, ivory and a rusty/burgundy color. Too early to tell much about the shedding, but that always goes away sooner or later. Another great by form Overstock...thanx!
