Set against a crisp white background, this large floral tribute takes on the unmistakable, sweeping shape of a saxophone, crafted with the precision of an experienced funeral florist. The instrument's body is completely covered in a dense layer of small, bright yellow chrysanthemum heads, each one placed tightly against the next to form an even, cushion-like texture that faithfully follows the instrument's curved profile. These golden blooms carry a soft, hopeful radiance, suggesting sunlight breaking through a grey East London morning. Scattered thoughtfully across the yellow surface are numerous miniature red spray roses and rosebuds, positioned where the saxophone's keys, tone holes, and decorative details would be, so their vivid crimson pops draw the eye along the length of the floral instrument. Fine trails of dark green foliage weave subtly in and out, particularly around the neck and bell, reinforcing the natural flow of the design while hinting at leafy vines winding along a canal path in Old Ford. Slim silver and green wires discreetly shape some of the more intricate contours, hinting at the hidden metalwork inside a real saxophone, and a delicate wire flourish gently rises from the mouthpiece area like a final breath of music. This bespoke memorial piece feels deeply personal, as if commissioned for a musician remembered from local venues across Bow and Old Ford, or a loved one who simply found joy in jazz and big band records at home. The bright yellow chrysanthemums express remembrance and shared laughter, while the red roses add an undercurrent of love, respect, and gratitude for a life that touched many hearts.

A highly detailed floral sculpture in the shape of a full-sized saxophone is displayed upright against a plain white background, its form so carefully composed that you can read every curve and angle at a glance. The entire instrument is densely packed with small, sunny yellow chrysanthemum florets, their petals layered tightly together to create a smooth, continuous surface that contours from the slim mouthpiece all the way down to the flared bell. These yellow flowers radiate warmth and optimism, softening the sadness that often surrounds a funeral or memorial. Dotted across this golden canvas, glossy red rosebuds or petite spray roses are positioned where the keys and key guards would usually sit, bringing both contrast and definition, like musical notes picked out in deeper colour. Delicate strands of fine green foliage thread along the edges and through the central line of the saxophone's body, enhancing its outline and suggesting movement, as if a gentle melody is flowing through the piece. Near the top, a few slender green and metallic wires extend subtly from the mouthpiece area, providing structure while also hinting at the inner workings of the instrument. The tribute feels as though it was lovingly created by a local Old Ford florist for a service at a nearby church or crematorium, perhaps in memory of someone who played jazz, swing, or brass band music around East London. This floral saxophone merges the language of flowers with the language of music, offering a bright, heartfelt farewell that celebrates both personality and passion. The photograph captures a beautifully imagined funeral tribute in the precise form of a saxophone, artfully arranged against a pure white background that enhances its bright, musical colours. Every part of the instrument's body, from the open bell at the base to the polished sweep of the tube and the lifted curve of the neck, is fashioned from tightly packed yellow chrysanthemums, creating a full, cushiony texture that still reads as the smooth surface of metal from a distance. A vertical line of tiny orange-red spray roses runs along the length of the saxophone where the keys would sit, their deeper tones adding definition and suggesting the intricate pattern of buttons and levers on a real instrument. These roses are interwoven with small hints of green foliage, adding freshness and depth, like little breaths of garden air among the golden blooms. Fine, pale green floral wires can just be spotted beneath the flowers, forming the unseen armature that holds the three-dimensional shape steady and true. A soft, gentle shadow beneath the arrangement grounds it on the surface, giving the sense that it is resting on a stand, perhaps in a quiet service room or family home in Old Ford as loved ones gather. The overall impression is both artistic and deeply personal: a floral saxophone that seems to hum with unplayed notes, ideal for honouring a jazz lover, band musician, or anyone whose life in Old Ford was coloured by concerts, rehearsals, and the comfort of favourite songs shared over the years.
