For their historic state visit to London, President Michael D Higgins and wife Sabina have both shown considerable sartorial flair.

A jeweller who sold a solitaire diamond for the wife of a developer in debt to Nama has been ordered to hand over his 5% commission.

Nama is to receive over $200,000 (€148,000) after the 8.38-carat diamond solitaire ring belonging to a property developer’s wife sold at a US auction.
