What were those wire and plastic ball wave desk ornaments called?

[Myneighbourisanosyoldgit]

Does anyone remember those ornaments that that small plastic balls on the end of thin wire which was set into a base and they fanned out? Slight movement and they would move like a wave and sometimes click together. I had some in orange and lime green, a bit trippy to watch but I liked them.
Can't think what they are called, thought of them today and now the not knowing is getting to me.😀
Someone please put me out of my misery?😄

Newtons Cradle I think.

Newtons cradle?

Do you mean a Newtons cradle, they were teapot popular when I was a teenager on the late 80s

Newtons cradle and they are still common on desks including my own

I know what you mean! They weren't newton's cradles. You could buy them in the Gadget Shop.

Thanks for the ideas but no luck so far.
Imagine a small circular with wires set into it and little balls on the ends. The weight pulls the wires and the balls droop outwards like wilting flowers.
Can't post a picture as not sure what I'm looking for name wise.🤔

something like this?

You are a legend, that's the one👏
Thanks everyone for your help, I loved mine so now off to buy another. Silly stuff makes me happy 😄

Came to say a flexible mandala, but I see someone else has already found the answer for you!

I loved the Gadget Shop! Was genuinely sad when it died, I still have some of the daft things I got there!

It's a heck of a price!

I used to own a vintage shop, have sold a lot of these in the past. I've always known them as "bobble trees", you should be able to get one much cheaper than that. The blue/green is my favourite colourway.

I've been trying to think of a way to make a giant outdoor one for my garden.

It’s £175.00! Nostalgia don’t come cheap.

I remember Basil Brush. 'Shiny ball on bits of string, Shiny ball on bits of string, shiny balls, bang bang, shiny balls'

Try Kinetic wire ball sculpture or Kinetic wire tree as search terms. There are a few on Etsy and cheaper than the first one.

Magic ball trees! I had a couple from charity shops in the 90s, presumably from the 60s or 70s. Watch out if a ball comes off the end of a wire though, it could have your eye out.

Our cat destroyed mine 😭

I presume 'teapot popular' was an auto-incorrect; but I really want it to become an actual commonly-used phrase now!!

I have one of those in my spare bedroom that was my Christmas gift from my best friend's Mum in the 1960s. Friend had one too, but she threw hers away a few years ago, it had lost some balls.

It was autocorrect but I too think teapot popular should be a phrase now 😂

Cheaper but missing stand
Shove it in a candlestick

The power of MN not only remebers what @Myneighbourisanosyoldgit looking for but invents a brilliant new phrase for anything that is really popular .
Gotta love MN 😁
