An elegantly constructed circular wreath in a restrained palette of royal blue and crisp white, presented on a plain white field that emphasises its formal geometry. The bulk of the design is formed from an abundant mass of small, deep-blue chrysanthemum-like blooms, their dense, almost cushiony texture making a richly contoured ring. Lining the inner opening is a sculpted, ruffled white satin ribbon, pleated to provide a soft, luminous edge that both lifts and contains the flower mass. At the upper-left quadrant a trio of large blue roses commands attention; each rose is fully unfurled, petals layered with velvety thickness in a striking sapphire hue, and they are set against delicate clouds of Gypsophila and restrained dark green foliage to create a classic sympathy focal point. Flowing from the central-left area down toward the lower right is an arching spray of pristine white orchids, their broad, silky petals and pale centres lending an ethereal, weightless quality to the composition. Bright green orchid buds punctuate the cascade, some closed, some hinting at opening-an understated symbol of life continuing within a moment of farewell. The overall mood is serene and respectful, the cool diffused light revealing subtle contrasts between velvety petals and glossy satin. Thoughtfully suited to memorials at Nunhead Cemetery or quiet services in nearby East Dulwich and Peckham, this wreath conveys composed sympathy, purity, and enduring memory through considered florist craft and fresh, seasonal flowers.

A solemn, circular funeral wreath set against a clean white backdrop: the main body is a dense, continuous ring of tightly packed, electric-royal blue chrysanthemums whose small, layered petals create a plush, almost velvet surface that catches soft morning light. The inner edge is neatly trimmed with a crisp, ruffled white satin ribbon that frames the open centre with a formal, comforting line. At the crown of the circle three deep, royal blue roses bloom fully, their velvety petals unfurling and gently supported by tiny clusters of pure white gypsophila and a few deep green leaves, forming a calm, dignified focal point. From the left side a graceful spray of white orchids - likely Phalaenopsis - cascades downward, each broad petal luminous against the blue field, while a slender stem of pale yellow-green buds weaves through the orchids, suggesting delicate renewal. The arrangement is composed with careful symmetry and depth: the massed chrysanthemums read as a bold backdrop while the roses and orchids offer points of tenderness and fragility. There is a subtle, clean floral scent - faint honeyed sweetness from the chrysanthemums and a cool orchid perfume - that reinforces the wreath's mood of quiet remembrance. As a tribute suited to services at Nunhead Cemetery or a farewell gathering near Nunhead Green, the colourway of blue and white evokes serenity, loyalty, and peaceful mourning. The piece speaks of thoughtful craftsmanship, each bloom placed with gentle intent to comfort mourners and honour memory, delivering a restrained yet eloquent message of respect and lasting affection for those saying goodbye in our local community. A solemn, circular funeral wreath rendered in cool, comforting blues and bright white, captured against a clean white backdrop. The wreath's base is densely built from a carpet of small, jewel-toned deep blue chrysanthemums whose fine, feathery petals create a tactile, almost velvety surface that reads like a ring of midnight waves. Tucked along the inner edge is a soft, pleated white satin ribbon that cushions the flowers and lends a gentle, formal border. At the upper-left quadrant three large blue roses open fully in a rich sapphire tone, their plush, velvety petals layered with graceful folds; they sit like quiet sentinels and are framed by tiny clouds of white baby's breath and a few dark green leaves for depth. From the mid-left the eye follows a delicate cascade of ivory-white orchids-likely Phalaenopsis-arching toward the lower right; their smooth, sculpted petals and pale centres offer an airy, almost luminous contrast to the intense blue beneath. Interspersed among the orchids are fresh lime-green buds in various stages of opening, a subtle symbol of renewal threaded through a design for remembrance. The overall lighting is cool and diffused, picking out the soft sheen of the ribbon and the velour of petals without harsh shadow, as if photographed in a quiet late-morning light. This carefully balanced composition-rich blue for memory and serenity, pure white for innocence and peace-reads as a dignified tribute, suitable for services at Nunhead Cemetery or quiet chapel gatherings in Brockley and nearby Peckham, conveying deep condolence with botanical grace and respectful craftsmanship.
