# Bejeweled Fidget Spinners This Takashi Murakami-Inspired Fidget Spinner Was Made for J Balvin By Mary Van Puymbroeck | Published 2017-06-20 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/murakamiinspired-fidget-spinner References: [highsnobiety](http://www.highsnobiety.com/2017/06/16/murakami-fidget-spinner-j-balvin/) & [instagram](https://www.instagram.com/jbalvin/) Colombian reggaeton artist J Balvin has commissioned a luxury Murakami-Inspired Fidget Spinner. Los Angeles-based jewelers IF & Co have created two flower-faced fidget spinners for the Colombian artist. Each piece is made of a mix of "18k rose gold, 18k white gold, VVS diamonds, pink sapphires, rubies, precious gemstones, and canary diamonds on an 18k gold chain." For added value and flair, these [Murakami-inspired fidget spinners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collab-with-takashi-murakami) are meant to hang on a chain and be worn as a necklace. J Balvin wrote on his [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wanderlust-co-x-rubirosa) "I'm just a big kid, with nice toys," referring to the [fancy spinners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slidergamemackey). With any viral toy craze comes the customization and luxury iterations of the toy. We have already seen luxury spinners in the Massdrop x RAMA WORKS S01 Remedy Spinner and spoof Cartier fidget spinners. This custom Murakami-inspired fidget spinner highlights how deeply entrenched these distraction toys are in today's society. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.4/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 93% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: South America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Viral](https://www.trendhunter.com/viral) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Luxury Fidget Spinners:** The customization and luxury iterations of fidget spinners highlight the demand for high-end versions of popular toys. - **Art-inspired Accessories:** The creation of Murakami-inspired fidget spinners shows the trend of incorporating art into everyday accessories. - **Toy Personalization:** The customization of fidget spinners reflects the desire for unique and personalized toys. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Jewelry:** Jewelers can tap into the market by creating luxury fidget spinners adorned with precious gemstones and metals. - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can collaborate with artists to create art-inspired accessories like Murakami-inspired fidget spinners. - **Toy Manufacturing:** Toy manufacturers can offer customization options for fidget spinners to cater to the demand for personalized toys. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Portable Metal Fidget Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mezmocoin-nano.md) - [Anxiety-Targeted Fidget Spinning Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spinner-ring.md) - [Wearable Magnetic Fidget Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnetic-fidget-toy.md) - [Wearable Fidget Toy Bracelets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infinity-flip-mobius-fidget-band-toy.md) - [Stylish Four-in-One Fidget Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infini-fidget-toy.md) - [Minimalist Japanese Fidget Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fingerdama.md) - [Gem-Studded Songwriter Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bandana-royale.md) - [Modular Spinning Gamer Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neo-spin.md) - [3D-Printed Fidget Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jigglets.md)
