English translation:silver ring with a red stone
Explanation:
Ovdje ne zvuci "the" idiomatski, i obavezno treba biti "a" ili cak "silver ring with red stone" ako je jedan podatak u listu.

silver ring with the red jewel (stone)


Explanation:
stone je dovoljno, u kontekstu prstena podrazumijeva se da je dragi kamen u pitanju

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hvala, ja sam tako i stavila, ipak je stone bolje od jewel jer nije definirano je li dragi kamen ili obični.

neutral  Davor Ivic: ovdje se radi o povratu ukradene imovine i ne traži se neki kamen nego upravo taj koji je ukraden i mislim da je to ipak the stone
10 hrs
agree  Mira Stepanovic: nije ukraden kamen nego "prsten s kamenom" i neodređeni član je jedino moguće i ispravno rešenje; slažem se da je, kada se radi o nabrajanju, moguće (i ispravno) potpuno izostaviti član
