Satoru Rectangular Striped Table Runner

I purchased this runner for a wine buffet. The runner is well made with thick cotton material. My disappointment lies in the very faded color of the tan and gray stripes. I thought by looking at the runner on the website that the design would pop a bit more. The stripes are very faded and you can barely see them. I'm keeping it at this point, but may purchase another runner of a different style in the near future that adds more interest to the overall effect.
