A single lei, radiating colour yet conveying a tender, reflective mood, is displayed as a closed oval on a stark white background, ideal for a funeral or memorial tribute. The garland is formed from artificial flowers that closely resemble chrysanthemums, with numerous fine petals creating rounded, cushion-like heads. These blooms are packed so tightly along the string that the lei appears almost like a continuous band of petals rather than individual flowers. From the upper left and around the oval, the hues follow a considered progression: a deep, velvety purple section gives way to a short stretch of immaculate white, followed by bright, optimistic yellow. This lightness then warms into rich golden yellows and ambers, before transitioning into darker maroon and reddish-brown blossoms that echo the rust-coloured stone and old brickwork often seen around Nunhead's historic terraces and cemetery walls. Occasional flashes of dark green foliage or ribbon appear between colour blocks, providing structure much like the discreet greenery Nunhead Florist might weave into a sympathy wreath for a farewell near Ivydale Road or Queens Road. The lei casts a soft, gentle shadow onto the white surface beneath it, adding depth and suggesting a tangible, almost comforting presence. Although the style honours Hawaiian lei-giving traditions of welcome and respect, the calm, uncluttered composition and the oval's sense of unbroken continuity make it especially appropriate for funerals, cremations, and celebrations of life in and around Nunhead, where families wish to honour a loved one with something both distinctive and deeply symbolic.

An elegantly crafted lei forms a complete, unbroken oval against a spotless white background, its colours arranged with the quiet care you would expect for a funeral tribute. The garland is made from artificial flowers with densely layered petals, giving each head the rounded, fluffy look of a chrysanthemum and creating a cushioned, tactile surface all the way around. Starting at the top left and travelling clockwise, the lei presents a thoughtful gradient: lush purple blooms lead into a brief, tranquil stretch of white, which then brightens into lemon yellow before mellowing into deeper golden and amber tones. This warmth gradually settles into rich maroon and reddish-brown flowers, reminiscent of late-autumn foliage in Nunhead Cemetery or the tree-lined paths towards Brockley, before looping back to yellow to finish the circle. Small, dark green separators appear at some of the transitions, offering just enough contrast to define each coloured section without breaking the overall harmony. The white background strips away any context, focusing the eye on the symbolic oval shape, which naturally suggests continuity, eternity, and an embrace of memory. A faint, soft shadow beneath the lei helps the flowers stand out, giving the impression they are resting gently on a table ready to be carried to a service in Nunhead or Peckham Rye. Though inspired by Hawaiian leis and their message of welcome and honour, the calm composition, balanced palette, and refined finish make this piece feel entirely at home as a modern, meaningful tribute for a final farewell.
