A solemn yet graceful floral cross laid out against a clean white background and viewed slightly from above so the three-dimensional shape reads clearly. The foundational structure is formed of dense clusters of small white spray chrysanthemums, their layered petals packed to create a smooth, velvety surface along the horizontal arms and the long shaft. Bright, apple-green button chrysanthemums are precisely placed to trace the circular ring at the cross's centre and to occupy alternating blocks within the arms, producing a striking contrast in colour and a tactile, mosaic-like effect. These lime green accents bring energetic definition to the traditional Celtic ring and add depth to the composition's geometry.

At the very heart, where the arms converge, three rich orange-yellow roses form a compact focal group; their warm, golden petals unfurl with a soft, comforting presence, instantly drawing the eye. A few dark green fern sprigs cradle the roses, introducing a slender, feathery texture and grounding the centre with cool foliage. The light is soft and even, emphasizing petal detail and gentle shadow between blooms; the scent is subdued - the chrysanthemums' clean, green notes and the roses' soft, fruity warmth combine to create an unobtrusive fragrance. This floral tribute reads as a dignified funeral or sympathy arrangement, crafted to honour someone with Irish connections or a reverence for Celtic symbolism. Locals around Old Ford Road, Three Mills or the nearby Roman Road Market might choose this cross for a chapel service or graveside placement, where its balanced colours and precise workmanship speak of careful remembrance and quiet faith.

A sculpted Celtic cross formed entirely from fresh blooms, seen from a slightly elevated viewpoint against a crisp white background. The broad arms and long shaft are densely covered in small, pure white spray chrysanthemums whose closely packed petals create a soft, pillowed surface that reads both serene and sturdy. Woven through that white foundation are vivid sections of apple-green button chrysanthemums; these lime-toned spheres trace the circular ring where the arms meet and alternate along the horizontal arms, producing the patterned, knot-like motif that defines the Celtic design. At the exact centre, three fully opened orange-gold roses gather like a quiet sun, their warm, layered petals offering a tender focal point that contrasts vividly with the cool white and fresh green. Dark green fern sprigs nestle gently around the roses, their feathery texture framing the focal blooms and adding a sober, natural depth.

The lighting is soft and even, washing the composition with a calm clarity that highlights petal edges and the subtle sheen of new foliage. The chrysanthemums have a faint, earthy green scent; the roses bring a gentle, honeyed fragrance that reads as comfort rather than celebration. The overall impression is one of dignified remembrance - appropriate as a funeral tribute or sympathy piece - and the colour triad of white, green and orange quietly echoes Irish heritage without flamboyance. As a florist familiar with Old Ford and the neighbouring Victoria Park community, I imagine this cross placed with care at a memorial service near Roman Road Market or beside the quiet banks of the Hertford Union Canal, where ritual and memory find gentle space. The craftsmanship speaks to thoughtful design and careful handling, a floral expression of lasting respect and tender consolation. A refined funeral cross inspired by the colours of the Irish flag is shown resting calmly, its details captured in soft, even light. The cross itself is fully covered in crisp white chrysanthemums, placed so tightly their soft petals form a continuous, plush surface that feels both pure and reassuring. Interspersed along the arms and borders are neat domes of bright lime-green cushion and button chrysanthemums, their rounded, tufted heads giving the impression of fresh grass or moss after rain in nearby Victoria Park. These green accents gently outline the cross, enhancing its shape without overwhelming the central white. At the heart of the design, where the arms meet, three roses form a radiant focal point. Their colours drift from deep orange through warm apricot to golden yellow, like a small sunset held at the centre of the tribute. Each rose is perfectly open, revealing spiralled petals with a soft, velvety sheen. They are cradled by delicate green filler and slender fern fronds, whose darker greens add visual depth and a subtle woodland feel. The overall composition is calm and balanced, with no harsh contrasts, suitable for a church service or crematorium farewell around Old Ford, especially where Irish identity or colours hold special significance. It conveys a sense of tenderness and respect, as though the flowers themselves are offering a quiet blessing and a final touch of beauty to someone dearly missed.
