These items are popular fidget toys that gained massive global popularity around 2017. The specific models shown include a generic brushed metal tri-spinner and two medieval-themed spinners featuring shield designs with crosses.

Because Catherine Hettinger, who is often credited with the original 1990s conceptual invention, did not maintain her patent, the market became flooded with thousands of independent manufacturers. These specific designs are widely produced by white-label manufacturers in China and sold through various third-party retailers globally under different non-proprietary brand names. There is no single ultimate owner for these specific designs as they are considered generic consumer goods in the toy and novelty market.
