This invention generally relates to decorative spinners. More specifically, this invention relates to a spinner apparatus rotated about its vertical axis, either by wind blowing across its face or in a second embodiment, spun by a motor drive unit. The spinner apparatus consists of a number or set of letters or other decorative symbol or logo on or in a pad centered between concentric bands of tinted transparent material coated metal which are connected at the top and bottom and progressively radially displaced about their vertical axis as they approach the inner band. When the device is spun either by the wind blowing it or by an electric motor, the numbers, letters or symbols stand out and appear to be stationary in the line of sight of the viewer and the bands progressively rotated off the plane of the outside band and the center detail provide an interesting wind catching and light reflecting three dimensional shape. When the spinning apparatus is lighted at night it takes on an electric glow appearance and the light appears to move either from the center outward or from the outside inward depending on the direction of rotation.
