Can I be sure that the color of the rug in photos will be the same in person?Updated 4 days ago

Color can be tricky because lighting in your room and screen settings on your computer can change how the color appears. We do our best to make sure rug colors are represented as accurately as possible. The photos that we take of our rugs are color-corrected to match the actual color of the rug as seen in person, in natural daylight. Keep in mind that if the lighting conditions in your home aren't consistent with natural daylight, the colors may appear slightly different in person than on the website.

Here are a few suggestions for getting an accurate sense of each rug’s color:

• Zoom in on the overhead shot to get a better sense of the color and details. 
• Double-check the close-up images. These are generally most precise in terms of color and brightness.
• Refer to the color palette in the Overview section for a detailed list of colors.
• Some product pages have a videos or reviews—check these out to see the rug’s colors in different lighting scenarios.
• Use our "view in your room" feature. This augmented reality tool is on many product pages and allows you to visualize the rug in your space. Just upload a photo of your room and wait for the rendering to populate!
• Keep in mind that often the overhead photo for our vintage rugs can appear more muted. From afar, the colors of the yarn used to weave the rug can blend with any white that may come through from the foundation, giving the overall appearance of more muted colors.
