FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
A light cream wicker basket with a tall, curved handle is set against a clean white background, overflowing with a carefully balanced mix of funeral flowers that speak of peace and remembrance. In the centre, a single creamy white rose opens in a perfect spiral, its soft petals symbolising purity and love that endures. To one side and the other, two rich purple calla lilies rise with elegant, sculpted curves, their deep tones adding a quiet sense of formality suited to a farewell gathering in or around Finsbury. Threaded among them are delicate, star-shaped clematis blossoms in shades of lilac and pale lavender, each bloom gently facing a different direction, giving the design a natural, garden-like movement. Small clusters of bright yellow, freesia-like flowers peep through the greenery, catching the light and lifting the mood just enough to suggest hope and warmth amid sorrow. Near the right edge, a vibrant magenta gerbera daisy emerges from the foliage, its radiating petals adding a single bold note of colour that can feel like a tribute to the individuality of the person being honoured. Lush green foliage, from broad, shining leaves to finer, lighter sprigs, fills the basket to the brim, creating a rounded, mounded form that looks generous without being overpowering. A soft shadow beneath the basket grounds the image, as though it rests on a polished table in a quiet room off Rosebery Avenue, ready to be taken to a chapel, crematorium, or family address. The overall effect is one of gentle comfort and understated elegance, suitable for condolence deliveries throughout the Finsbury and Clerkenwell area.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
This image shows an understated yet luxurious funeral flower basket, carefully arranged to convey quiet sympathy. A pale, almost white woven basket with a matching handle forms the base, its simple, rectangular shape softened by the generous curve of flowers rising above it. The arrangement is dominated by large, creamy white roses, each one fully open, with layer upon layer of soft petals catching the light, like candle flames glowing gently in a still room off Clerkenwell Road. Between these roses, star-shaped clematis blooms in pale lavender stretch their slender petals, each flower centred with a vivid yellow-green eye that brings a sense of life and renewal. Smaller blossoms in white and buttery yellow, similar to freesia or delicate lisianthus, nestle throughout the design, some in tight buds, others just beginning to unfurl, their subtle perfume suggested by their fresh appearance. The florist has woven in a rich tapestry of dark and mid-green foliage, from broad, glossy leaves to finer, lighter sprigs that arch and curl, giving depth and a sense of movement, almost like a breeze drifting through Finsbury's garden squares. The colours remain gentle and cool-creams, ivories, soft yellows, and hints of lilac-creating a soothing, contemplative tone ideal for a funeral or wake. Set against a pristine white background, every stem appears intentional and carefully placed, the overall shape rounded yet relaxed, as though cradling a message of comfort. This is the kind of sympathy basket one might choose for a quiet family gathering near Finsbury, offering grace, respect, and a touch of light during a difficult time.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
A soft, respectful funeral arrangement rests in a pale wooden basket, its simple design echoing the calm, understated character of many services held around Finsbury and nearby churchyards. The basket itself is light and natural, made from smooth wooden slats with a subtle oval shape, slightly raised on neat little feet and crowned by a curved, sturdy handle. Over the rim spills a full, rounded mound of flowers, carefully layered to look both abundant and serene. At the centre, creamy white roses unfurl in perfect spirals, each petal smooth and velvety, suggesting purity, grace, and a quiet farewell. They are framed by rich red carnations, their densely ruffled heads forming pools of deep colour that speak of love, respect, and cherished memory. Threaded between them are gentler carnations in pale pink and white, some softly edged with crimson, bringing a tender, almost whispered warmth to the tribute. Smaller white flowers, reminiscent of freesias with their slender stems and open, bell-like blooms, punctuate the arrangement with small points of brightness, as though catching soft chapel light on a winter afternoon. Around and beneath the flowers lies a bed of glossy dark green foliage, likely ruscus or salal, providing structure and calm, while feathery fern-like sprigs emerge here and there, lending a natural, slightly wild softness. The overall impression is of a thoughtfully composed sympathy basket that could be placed at a crematorium, graveside, or condolence gathering in the Finsbury area, offering comfort and conveying heartfelt condolences without any need for words.

This image shows a sumptuous, hand-tied bouquet photographed from slightly above against a crisp white backdrop, as if placed on a studio table in a Finsbury flower shop. The bouquet is round and full, packed tightly with blooms so that only hints of stems and foliage are visible underneath. Dominating the composition are stately white lilies, their long petals sweeping back to reveal pale green centres and delicate stamens, some flowers fully open while nearby buds remain closed, promising continued bloom over several days. Woven between them are generous clusters of roses in soft pastel pink and creamy white, each rose displaying velvety petals, some in neat, tight buds, others open into ruffled cups that convey a sense of warmth and affection. Punctuating this gentle palette are several vivid fuchsia and deep pink Oriental lilies, reminiscent of Stargazers, their petals richly coloured with darker freckles and touches of white along the edges, adding drama and a focal point to the arrangement. Fine sprays of white gypsophila, or baby's breath, drift between the larger flowers like a delicate lace, creating lighter, airy patches that break up the density of the bigger petals. Slender green leaves curve around the blooms, peeping from beneath the flowers to frame the design. The lighting is bright, even and shadow-free, highlighting the freshness of the petals and the subtle sheen on the roses. The overall impression is one of joyful celebration with a refined edge, the sort of bouquet that might be carried through Spa Fields on a wedding day or delivered to a townhouse near Exmouth Market as a radiant expression of love and gratitude.
