Safavieh Vintage Oriental Stone Distressed Silky Viscose Rug - 8' x 11'2

I love this rug. It is perfect with my "shabby chic" décor. My friend who helped me lay it when it arrived said, "This looks like a 100 year old heirloom from New Orleans." The Stone color works with my tans and browns and whites--very neutral. I just signed in so I can order another one for a different room!!

This rug is true to color. It is very very soft. You can definitely tell it is not a 100% vintage wool rug, but I didn't expect that it would look like that. It doesn't look screen-printed like some of the other reviewers mentioned. It is thin, but I just put it on top of a rug pad. The pad made it perfect. The huge downside of the rug is that it WILL NOT quit shedding! It is so bad. I have vacuumed it so many times, and it filled up my vacuum canister so much that I've emptied it several times. It has been 2 weeks of daily vacuuming, and it still gets all over any fabric (My son's onsie etc.) that touches it. It also has made dust bunnies all over my entire house. I am very upset about this because the rug is beautiful and very large! If you can hang in there with the shedding, this is the rug for you. I do love it..great value for my money. Maybe not all rugs shed as bad as mine does. All in all, it's beautiful.

The rug is beautiful and I have gotten many compliments on it. However, I have learned that the material that this rug is made of, viscose, does not handle spills well. I have a cat who unfortunately has gotten sick on the rug numerous times, and no matter how careful I am cleaning it, the rug fibers get destroyed and it leaves an obvious spot on the rug. This is unfortunate because otherwise I love the look and feel of the viscose, but it just does not work for my home.

I am thrilled with this rug. I wanted something that was understated and worn looking without being worn and thin. This has a nice pile not too thick and not too thin. I have a pad under the larger one for my livingroom so it feels nice underfoot. I have a thin nonstick pad under the smaller one I have in my entry so it will clear my front door. Yes this rug does shed. I have had it for 2 months and have vacuumed about 10 - 15 times and no longer sheds. I worried that after the shedding the rug would be thinner but not so it seems to be as plush as before the shedding.

I could not be happier with this rug purchase! We replaced a jute rug in our living room - we have an infant and spend a lot of time on the floor and the jute rug was uncomfortable and left jute fibers all over everything! This rug is amazing! It is sooooo soft underfoot and it is absolutely gorgeous in person. It has a little more of a "sheen" than I was hoping for, but still beautiful. It is thin, so a good rug pad is a must. I was a little worried about he Viscose as it can be a little iffy with spills, but so far we haven't had any problems. Just be sure you google info about cleaning spills on viscose rugs. I would HIGHLY recommend.

I was looking for a vintage looking rug and not wanting to spend $2,000 + on a really good one I decided to try this one. The rug is very similar to the photo (at least on my monitor) and certainly looks as if it has been on a floor for decades. I'm not sure how well this rug will hold up over time as their was some shedding and the nap gets crushed very easily. I have it under my dining room table and as soon as you put a chair on it it flattens it out. I'm guessing that you can brush the rug and easily restore the nap if you need to. The rug is very thin but soft under your feet. Even though I don't believe this rug will last for decades for the price it is worth the chance.

I should start by saying I just got the rug so I don't know if the quality will hold up over time or not. What I can tell of it so far is that there is nothing wrong with it right now and that it is a very lovely rug. It is a thin rug, as this type of rug usually is, but it's pretty and has a nice silky pile and a light sheen to it. The pattern is prettier in person than in the pictures - I was afraid the pattern would be too subtle or that the "faded" places would be too large to maintain a decent pattern, but it's perfect. It is exactly what I wanted. It has a nice cream/stone colored field and the pattern is black/brown. This rug would go anywhere. We bought it for our living room and I love it. It's the nicest thing in the room now. Shipped within a few days of ordering and arrived the day it shipped, so that's nice. The packaging left a little something to be desired, but the rug arrived in good condition.

Love this rug! It is traditional with a twist of vintage, so it dresses down our traditional furniture just the right amount.

This is a great area rug for the price and definitely looks more expensive than what I paid for it. As others have mentioned, it has a noticeable sheen to it that makes is look a different color depending on which direction you're facing it. This actually worked for me since I have a lot of natural light. I place it under my dining room table and we get plenty of compliments. It does shed a little but not to the level that it irritates me and I'm sure it will shed less over time. The rug has a very low pile (it's thin) and you ABSOLUTELY need a rug pad under this as it makes a huge difference. I have two young and active kids so I couldn't see spending a lot on our first area rugs. Again, this is a good bang for the buck and I will be purchasing another.

I was looking for a large soft but thin, neutral rug for my bridal store and this would have been perfect had the color been more stone grey or taupe and less warm beige. I recommend purchasing the smallest rug (or requesting a swatch) if you are unsure of the color - much easier to send back if it doesn't work with your décor. This rug feels soft underfoot and has a cool vintage look. Guess it's back to the drawing board for a better match.

This rug is absolutely beautiful. Everyone who sees it loves it. I am extremely picky and it was just what I was looking for. HOWEVER, and this is a big HOWEVER, it cannot tolerate any bit of moisture/wetness. If a little drop of water or liquid comes into contact with the rug it is forever ruined in that area...almost as if the fibers have melted. You cannot ever return the fibers to anywhere near the original form. If you can ensure the rug will never come in contact with any liquid than it shouldn't be a problem. Finally, it does not wear well; picks up dirt easily and no way to clean beyond vacuuming (bc you cannot get it wet). Very dissapinted that Overstock wouldn't take this back as the problem was discovered within a few days when a single drop of water fell from my dogs mouth after drinking from her water bowl.

We are very happy with the rug. It is under our dining room table and we have gotten many complements. It does shed, but not so much that it is a problem. It is thin, so you do need a pad underneath it, but that is the style of the rug. It looks like it costs much more than it does and really pulls our whole room together. We are very pleased.

Great rug but not meant to be a cushiony type of one. It is great for walking areas as no one will trip on it since it lays flat

Beautiful rug. I have received many compliments. Very thin which is nice to go under a dining table. But impossible to clean.

I love this rug. It has more cream color than gray but is a perfect neutral. It is soft as silk. I vacuumed mine several times before I put my furniture on it and I have not had a lot of pilling. I have brown leather furniture and the rug is just the perfect accent .

Very happy with this rug. We have 3 cats and they have not created any snags or pulls in the rug. The colors go well with any decor and it is soft underfoot.

Rug came quickly as looked just as pictured. It is very soft but thin as pictured. It rolled out without much wrinkling and didn’t have much of a new carpet smell. It vacuums up nicely. I would recommend this - it brightened up my dark hardwood floors.

This rug is super chic especially for the price. It's way more affordable than most larger rugs with this look. Be prepared, it sheds at first. It's very thin. Which I was prepared for based on other reviews. So I bought the felt carpet matting. The rug is very soft like velvet. We’ve had the rug 5 years and spilled red wine numerous times. I’ve found Grease Lighting cleans it well if done so immediately. Over those 5 years we’ve received countless compliments. Great buy!

This rug is very elegant in my den. I use it with my beige linen furniture and like how it looks. I have received many compliments and would buy it again.

Excellent looking rug that has held up to years of use. It is very thin, but I like that.

I have two of these! The colors are beautiful and they’re very soft. They wear very well and look great!

I bought this for my daughter's bedroom and she loves it. It goes beautifully with a walnut canopy bed and linen bedding. It is subtle and has character. It is on the thin side, which we wanted as a door swings over the rug and we didn't want to trim the door.

This rug is so pretty in our living room, nice subtle tones that don’t distract from your decorations. We got it for a steal as well. Beware of spills on this rug because it turns the fabric rough, however it cleans very well with a steam cleaner.

I love this rug! I will say we didnt purchase a pad for under it and maybe you should because one side of it is starting to curl up a bit. Also we have 4 kids so it could be all the foot traffic though. Looks like it does in picture.

Holds up well. Gorgeous color
