SWK is definitely the way to go for the USD ($$). I just purchased a SWK Irish National and it's awesome....looks very much like wool and feels like it, too. Great service, by the way.

The Irish National is different from Ireland's National...look at them both closely, and you'll see the difference. The Irish National is from House of Edgar (trade mark) and seems to be more vibrant in color. Ireland's National has too much white in it for my liking.

Oh, they are made in Pakistan, at least mine was.

SWK has had many positive comments on this site for their Saffron, too. Tough decision, eh????
