I remember looking for this for a story. I remember this from the Council of Elrond:

' "The Nine, the Seven, and the Three," he said, "had each their proper gem. Not so the One. It was round and unadorned, as it were one of the lesser rings

We don't know what the gem was, but we do know that the rings were fair to look at. And then Sauron perverted them, per the Silmarillion:

And all those rings that he governed he perverted, the more easily since he had a part in their making, and they were accursed, and they betrayed in the end all those that used them.

I would think that the person receiving the ring saw something of power and beauty, not something perverted and grotesque.

But that was all I recall finding.
