This rug is GORGEOUS! The colors are a nice shade of grey and the ivory is more of an off white which is nice compared to a yellow ivory color which most rugs are. I am super pick with textures and have returned a number of rugs that state they are plush, however, this one really is one of the softest rugs without looking like a cheap shag rug. LOVE LOVE LOVE this item and will purchase from this brand again for sure!!
