I ordered this scarf expecting it to be a gold color as indicated in the photo. Instead it was very green; I'd call it a yellowish green. It is also extremely thin material--not something you would use to keep warm, so if you're looking for a winter scarf, this is not the scarf for you. The silky material tends to get snags in it, but it's still very pretty--it just has more of a rough "worn" look to it due to the snagging.
