FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
In this detailed funeral flower arrangement, a light cream woven basket with a high, rounded handle is placed against a pure white backdrop, its subtle shadow grounding it gently on the surface. Rising from the basket is a carefully composed display of fresh blooms that feels both abundant and serene, like a quiet walk along the South Bank near Bankside on a still morning. At the heart sits a large creamy white rose, its petals curled inward in a classic spiral, symbolising purity and remembrance. Flanking it are two rich purple calla lilies, their sculpted, trumpet-shaped forms leaning gracefully, their colour deepening towards the throat for a sophisticated, almost velvety effect. Scattered through the arrangement are delicate clematis-like flowers in pale lavender and soft lilac, each with slender, star-shaped petals and soft yellow centres that seem to float above the greenery. Sunny yellow blossoms, reminiscent of alstroemeria or freesia, appear in small clusters, their bell-shaped flowers bringing gentle brightness to the design, balanced by crisp white filler flowers and pale green buds. On the right edge of the bouquet, a vivid fuchsia or magenta gerbera daisy-like bloom peeks out, its fine petals radiating from a dark centre, lending a touch of cheerful resilience amidst the more muted tones of sympathy. All of this is cradled in lush, layered greenery: broad, glossy leaves, possibly Ruscus, and lighter, feathery sprigs provide structure, depth, and a sense of natural calm. The arrangement feels carefully considered and professionally crafted, a comforting floral tribute suitable for funerals, memorial services, or condolence deliveries to homes and chapels around Bankside, captured in bright, even lighting that highlights every petal and leaf.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
A light, natural wicker basket with a softly curved handle is filled to overflowing with flowers that seem to breathe calm into the white studio background behind them. At the heart of the arrangement, several large, creamy white roses sit in full, open bloom, their petals gently cupped and velvety, like folded silk. Around them, star-shaped clematis flowers in pale lavender and muted periwinkle form a delicate halo, each bloom centred with a bright yellow-green eye, adding a touch of quiet intrigue and subtle colour contrast. Clusters of smaller white and pale yellow blossoms, freesia-like in their slender buds and trumpet shapes, nestle between the larger flowers, suggesting soft fragrance and giving the composition a gentle rhythm. Here and there, faint lemon-yellow hints catch the light, bringing a sense of warmth without disturbing the serene, almost ethereal palette. Lush, dark green foliage surrounds and supports the blooms, the glossy leaves and fine stems creating a rich green frame that accentuates the lighter petals. The basket itself feels timeless and comforting, the kind of traditional funeral flower design a skilled local florist in Bankside might prepare for a service in one of the nearby churches or a farewell gathering along the South Bank. The mood is reflective and soothing, offering a quiet message of sympathy, remembrance, and peaceful farewell. This floral tribute would be fitting for expressing condolences, honouring a life well lived, or bringing a soft, natural presence to a memorial service or crematorium chapel.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
In this image, a refined funeral flower basket rests against a clean white backdrop, its details shown with clarity and gentleness, as though viewed in soft natural daylight through a Bankside window. The basket itself is crafted from pale, natural wood slats, shaped into a shallow oval that sits securely on four understated feet, giving the arrangement a grounded yet elegant profile. A curved wooden handle arches above, painted or finished in a light tone that complements the creamy and red flowers below without distracting from them. The blooms are arranged in a full, domed shape that spills just beyond the edges, conveying generosity and a sense of embrace, ideal for ceremonies in and around the Bankside area where families gather to remember and reflect. At the centre, several creamy white roses are fully open, their smooth, softly spiralling petals suggesting peace and reverence. Around them, deep red carnations cluster in abundant ruffles, each flower dense with texture, adding a rich, emotional warmth often chosen to honour deep love and respect. Interspersed are delicate white blossoms, similar to freesias, with slender stalks and bell-shaped flowers that introduce a lighter, more ethereal touch. Some carnations display bi-coloured petals, white kissed with pink and red around the edges, subtly softening the strong contrast between crimson and ivory. The arrangement is anchored by a bed of glossy, dark green leaves, likely ruscus or salal, while airy sprigs of fern or asparagus plumosa peek through, lending height and softness. The overall effect is calm, dignified, and consoling-a basket that could sit gracefully beside a photo at a memorial service near Tate Modern or be delivered quietly to a family home in Bankside as a tender expression of sympathy.

£90.00
A lavish, rounded bouquet brimming with lilies and roses is shown against a crisp white backdrop, every petal illuminated as if in soft studio light. The arrangement is dense yet perfectly composed, anchored by generous white lilies that open in graceful trumpets, their ivory petals curving outward to reveal pale green stamens and a subtle hint of golden pollen. Between these serene blooms, layers of pastel pink roses and creamy ivory roses nestle closely together, some in tight buds promising future beauty, others fully unfurled in rich, velvety spirals that seem to invite touch. Adding drama and a sense of celebration, vivid fuchsia and magenta Oriental lilies, similar to Stargazer varieties, bloom boldly across the design, their speckled petals and bright yellow anthers creating pockets of vibrant colour that draw the eye. Fine, airy sprigs of white gypsophila lace the bouquet like a soft veil, filling the spaces between larger flowers and lending the design a romantic, cloud-like softness. Threads of fresh green foliage, mainly from lily leaves and rose stems, provide a cool contrast to the warm pinks and creams, grounding the arrangement in natural simplicity. The overall effect is one of romantic opulence, the sort of bouquet a Bankside florist might create for a wedding reception near Tate Modern, an anniversary dinner along the river, or a meaningful thank-you gift delivered to a home overlooking the Millennium Bridge. The image conveys not only the colours and textures but also an emotional warmth-a sense of joy, tenderness, and elegant celebration carried in every bloom.
