KGT 154f.:  {Qeb}, the regular word for ring (for the finger)

A *gin'tak* (an advisor so trusted he has been made part of the family) wears a special ring, bearing the crest of the House {tuq Degh} he has pledged his life to defend. (TNG "Firstborn")

Similar words:

qewwI' 	ring finger
rutlh 	wheel, hoop (n)

gho 		circle (n)
jengva' 	[disk?] (lit. "plate")

I've used {Qeb} for a link of a chain {mIr}.  YMMV.
