Connemara Wool

"This Connemara rug is 100% pure wool. It was given to me in 1947 when I was born. Mickey O’Neill, my cousin, gave it to me. He was living in Ballymole, Galway. I brought it to boarding school, to college, to my flat; I got it as a Christmas present on 8th December, 1947. I have been using this my whole life. "
