A large, custom floral tribute shaped precisely like a saxophone is shown standing upright against a crisp white background, its silhouette instantly recognisable to anyone who has ever listened to live music in a South Norwood pub or community hall. The body of the saxophone is painstakingly covered with scores of small, bright yellow chrysanthemum blooms, each floret pressed closely to the next to form an uninterrupted, velvety skin of colour. The curved neck, long body, and flared bell are all rendered in these sunny petals, creating a warm, almost golden glow that catches the light and lifts the mood despite its purpose as a funeral arrangement. Tiny red spray roses and rosebuds are tucked thoughtfully into the yellow base at regular intervals, mimicking the instrument's keys, buttons and tone holes; their deeper crimson tones bring a sense of reverence and affection, like treasured memories of shared songs. Slender trails of dark green foliage and perhaps fine ivy weave gently along the outline and through the central curve, suggesting the intricate tubing of the instrument while also adding a natural, flowing movement. Discreet silver or green wires emerge near the mouthpiece area and run through the design, providing structure yet remaining delicate enough not to disturb the illusion of a real saxophone. This floral sculpture feels both personal and symbolic, a fitting tribute for a funeral or memorial in South Norwood for someone whose life was closely tied to music-whether a jazz lover, band member, or keen listener. It offers a comforting expression of remembrance, as though the melodies they loved still echo softly in the background.

A beautifully imaginative funeral tribute in the detailed form of a saxophone is presented upright against a plain white background, allowing every nuance of the floral work to stand out clearly. The entire instrument is built from compact clusters of bright, sunny yellow chrysanthemum florets, their small, feathery petals creating a soft, cushion-like texture that carefully follows the long, sinuous body and sweeping bell of the sax. Punctuating this cheerful yellow canvas, small deep red roses and rosebuds are placed where the keys and buttons would naturally sit, their rounded shapes and velvety petals adding both visual depth and emotional richness, like the heartfelt notes of a favourite tune. Fine strands of fresh green foliage and slender grasses twist and curl along the edges, particularly around the curved neck and lower loop, adding an airy, lyrical quality as if the instrument were mid-song. Discreet structural wires, some lightly visible near the mouthpiece, provide the support needed for the design to stand upright while also echoing the delicate mechanics of a real saxophone. Imagined in a quiet chapel close to South Norwood's tree-lined streets or near the green openness of South Norwood Lake and Grounds, this floral saxophone would make a deeply personal tribute for a musician, jazz aficionado, or anyone whose life revolved around rhythm and melody. The interplay of yellow, red and green conveys both joy and respect, offering comfort to grieving family and friends while honouring the vibrant spirit and musical legacy of their loved one. The scene shows an imaginative funeral tribute in the form of a full-sized saxophone, exquisitely crafted from fresh flowers by a skilled South Norwood florist. The core of the design is a dense layer of bright yellow chrysanthemums, each small blossom carefully aligned to follow the sweeping lines of the instrument from the open bell to the curved neck. Their short, tightly packed petals create a rich, cushiony texture that suggests the smooth shine of a brass saxophone, yet brings a softness that feels comforting and tender. Winding gracefully up the length of the instrument, a textured line of orange-red spray roses represents the keywork, their tiny buds and open florets glowing warmly against the yellow backdrop. Between the roses, pockets of fresh, deep green foliage are tucked in, adding depth, movement, and a natural contrast that keeps the design lively rather than somber. Light green floral wires and an internal framework are just visible in places, subtly revealing the structure that supports this sculptural arrangement. The saxophone rests visually on a pale surface, its gentle shadow giving a sense of real weight and presence against the clean white background, as though it could be displayed at a farewell service in a South Norwood church or at a music-themed memorial at a venue near Norwood Junction. The tribute feels deeply personal, ideal for someone whose life was filled with melodies, rehearsal nights, or local performances, offering comfort to family and friends through a final, beautifully silent song.
