    “Senators will agree that we should place no emblem before us in this Assembly that is not of Ireland, in spirit and in workmanship, carrying in it the faith both of the Old Irish world and of the New. I have insisted, therefore, that the form of the casket should go back in direct descent to the ‘shrines’ designed by the Irish over a thousand years ago”

    Mia Cranwill (born Maria Cranwill; 1 March 1880 – 20 October 1972) was an Irish designer and metal artist, and was one of the leading artists of the Irish Celtic Revival.
    ...
    One of her most significant pieces was commissioned by Alice Stopford Green, it was to create a metal casket for a scroll with the signatures of the Free State senators. The casket, known as the Senate Casket, has gold, silver, and enamel on a copper foundation. The shape is based on that of the Gallarus Oratory.[5] Upon its completion in 1924, it received universal praise, being exhibited at the NMI and the Manchester Art Federation. When the Senate was dissolved in 1936, it was presented to the Royal Irish Academy.[4] Newland Smith reviewed the casket, described Cranwill was a "designer and craftswoman who understands the national Irish style and can interpret it, create anew within it, and add to the old and delightful forms a personality and expression quite new" ...

    Opel Kadett B in the foreground and an early Renault 10(round headlamps) coming into shot. Later models had oblong lamps.

    The card was originally monochrome but has been poorly colourised.

    There is another photo from the same series, from further away -

    ... which makes me think this is the building, with later additions. Door, window positions, and chimneys match, if you disregard the extension on the right - maps.app.goo.gl/jLZLmLtt9j99izTMA

    "History of Arbutus Cottage (Gap of Dunloe)

    19th-Century Furniture Hub: Built in the 1880s, the cottage originally served as the workshop for master cabinet maker James French. French specialized in "Killarney work"—intricate woodwork and furniture carved and inlaid with native arbutus and bog oak timber found in the Killarney National Park.

    Royal Seal of Approval: The cottage's workshop was so renowned that in April 1885, the Prince and Princess of Wales (later King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra) visited the property to view the famous inlaying and carving industry firsthand."
