An ornate little mock bonsai tree that doubles up both as an ornament and a charger for everyday electrical devices was created by a designer from France.

This happens with the help of a fabric that turns walking into electrical power.

The gaps in the clothes are squashed together while a person walks and the energy created is then used to power mobiles.
