Yes, indeed.
This is the handle of a mocha cup from the Meissen porcelain service swan with gold rim.

This is a golden barrel cactus (Echinocactus grusonii), sometimes called mother-in-law's cushion.
There is an Australian slang term "cactus" meaning broken; ruined; no longer working, now mostly related to a technical system. "My computer is cactus!".
There are several opinions on the origin of this slang term. But most likely would be introduction of the prickly pear to Australia in 1788 on the First Fleet. It became a pest, quickly overrunning many thousand acres of farmland - rendering the farm "cactus!"

"""In the early 1500s, the first Jack-in-the-Box was made by a German clockmaker known as Claus. Claus built a wooden box, with metal edges and a handle that would pop out a cartoon devil or “Jack” after cranking the handle.
It was built as a gift for a local prince's fifth birthday. After seeing this toy, other nobles requested their own "Devils-in-a-box" for their children.
In the early 18th century, improved toy mechanisms made the Jack-in-the-Box more widely available for all children and not just royalty.
The Jack-in-the-Box has been used for centuries by cartoonists as a way to describe and poke fun at politicians.
The name Jack in the Box has also been used as the name of a fast food company, who began using the toy and the phrase as their mascot in the early 1950s."""
Info - WiKi
This is a paper folded version. I used 30x60cm duo colored Kraft paper (gold /red).
Final size: a little box 5x5x5cm, when the box is closed. When Jack pops out the height is 10cm ;-))
Model: origami Jack in the Box

Stay safe and well everyone.
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated
Beautiful gerberas. They are so photogenic with their simple forms and delicate, intricate centres. But like all flowers, they're fragile and only live if they're handled with care and looked after lovingly.
Here's the music I've chosen to go with them. Famous and wonderful faces, voices and harmonica playing here if you're of my generation - please right click and open in a new tab.
