I was a little bit worried that the texture on this ring would be gross, or feel like sandpaper, but I'm really happy to say it's perfectly fine for me! It feels kiiinda like a metal nail file, but not as... filey? It's lightly etched, instead of the deeper texture on a metal nail file. And it spins really well, too! I've been wearing it almost a whole month now, and have repotted a houseplant, done crafts, slathered moisturizer on, petted countless animals, and the spin has gone down a little, but it's still fantastic. When I first got it you could give it a flick and it would spin freely for at least a full second, and now that it's dirty it's at about a half second. I'm betting an ultrasonic bath would keep it nice and free. Anyway I love this ring, it's so freaking cute, and it really does feel good to play with it. If you want a covert fidget, this is it!!
