The color in the pictures in no way resembles the actual color. It is turquoise at best.

This is a very pretty rug, nicely made, but the color on the website it not accurate. I bought it thinking it was more of a powder blue, which is what the picture looked like. Turns out its much darker, more of a teal blue. The surrounding shells/coral are dark teal, grey, taupe and cream. Its a very nice rug but the whole thing is darker then it appears in the picture.
