This may be a little off topic but D. Duarte is not penniless although he likes to make it seem like he is. He owns a very nice and large home in Sintra and an Apartment in Lisbon. He also inherited a few buildings from Queen Amelia that are rented out, some are rented out by week for toursists in Lisbon. He also inherited a house in the Algarve that he rents out to tourists when he's not there. Getting back on topic the Duke inherited a lot of Jewelry but he also has bought his wife some substantial pieces throughout their marriage. The Diamond and Sapphire ring being one example, a necklace and earring set which we haven't discussed yet and other pieces the Duchess has appeared in throughout their marriage, which some must have been purchased by the Duke himself.
