I probably should not have accepted this and returned it. But someone opened it a discarded the wrapping. It doesn't look like the photo at all. The border does not contrast with the inset portion as in the photo. The inset looks faded as though it is the underside of the rug. It looks like it was an irregular of some sort. I have a different version of the rug in another room in my home which is lovely. Safavieh makes a great product, and I thought that mine must have been an irregular sent from Overstock.
