UPDATE: I changed my review from 5 stars to 3 stars.
Still for the price it's a really great quality rug and I doubt you'll find a wool rug for a better price.
I dropped a star because
1) the rug cannot hold it's shape. I ordered the 16' hall runner and the the rug keeps warping into a semi-arc-- so the long edges are not straight or parallel to the walls of the hallway.
The only way I can partially remedy this is to pull the rug all the way to one side of the hallway, along one long wall, and, over a period of days, try to stretch-push-force the rug back straight again. I still have never achieved a completely straight rug, but I can reasonably close enough, and then, when company comes over, I have to remember to center the rug in the hallway again (eyeroll)
2) as I said originally, the color is not what I expected. I ordered "silver" (so from the name and the photos, I was expecting a pale grey color) but everyone who sees it thinks it's dusty dark purple :(
After 18 months, I'm ready to to move on. I'll probably wait another ~year and put up with this a little longer before I donate this one and buy a new one :(
Color is not what I expected, but it's still a keeper.
I ordered this in a 16' runner for the hallway, in silver/cream color. From the item photo, I was expecting a pale blue with a hint of grey (especially given that the color name is silver) but the actually color has a purple hue-- more like a faded chambray blue-lavender. More purple than I would like, but it still works for us, and, although everything in our color scheme is a cool grey or pale grey-blue, this is OK with me because it's only the hallway (if it had been a room area rug, I might have been really disappointed).
The quality of the pile, weave and wool is awesome, especially for the price. Getting lots of compliments!
