A Dwarf-ring as conceived by The Noble Collection

The Seven Dwarf-rings were the Rings of Power given to seven Dwarf Lords by Sauron in the guise of Annatar. The most famous was the Ring of Thrór, the Ring of Power given to Durin's folk. The Dwarf Lords proved resistant to the malevolent magic of the rings, which could not even turn them invisible. The rings did, however, make them exceedingly greedy. Angered by his failure, Sauron gathered the rings back to him. The final ring was taken from Thráin II in Third Age 2845 while he was imprisoned by Sauron in the dungeons of Dol Guldur.
