The carpet background is more of an antique gold. That is what my drapes are called and it is exact match.It is almost olive in color and the blue is a nice clear blue, definitely not teal. It is beautiful and looks as though it was custom made for the dining room. Think of the shades as medium tones if that helps. Jan in Mt.

The rug is beautiful. The colors are nice. A bronzy brown is the dark tone. The red accents are a dark burgundy. There are olive green leaves swirling throughout the pattern. The blue border background is a true light blue similar to a light denim color. a rug pulls the whole room together, and the square shape is unusual and perfect for the size of our room between the sofa and fireplace/tv area. All I had to do was unwrap (very well double wrapped in heavy plastic), unroll, and vacuum. The inside end of the roll stuck up, but if you roll it under backwards and step or push on it, then unroll it again, it smooths out surprisingly well.

great value- exceeded my expectations. color as depicted, excellent quality. have other wool rugs in my home and this is nicer. service excellent with quick and accurate delivery.

this rug is very very pretty but is sheds like crazy
