Answer #1

It would be “English diamond ring”, but to be honest, I’ve never heard of such a thing … not that my knowledge about diamonds is, in any way, extensive. What kind of link are you looking for - one that talks about diamond rings, or one that backs up the proper structure of the phrase?

Answer #2

thank you, Colleen. I need a link to support this proper structure of the phrase. There is a debate here related to the use of adjective order if it is: ORIGIN - MATERIAL - NOUN or MATERIAL - ORIGIN - NOUN. Like if it is Italian leather shoes or Leather Italian shoes.

Answer #3

According to this… http://funadvice.com/r/15cg6q078nn and that… http://funadvice.com/r/15cg6q07a1g …the word order should be English diamond. Because origin is before material.

According to this… http://funadvice.com/r/15cg6q07b6t …the word “diamond” should be in lower case unless it is in the beginning of the sentence or part of a proper name of an object.
