A large and meticulously constructed floral saxophone occupies the centre of a clean white background, every detail of the instrument's shape carefully translated into flowers. The body of the saxophone is thickly layered with small, bright yellow chrysanthemum heads, placed so close together that the underlying structure is completely hidden. This dense mass of blooms traces the full length of the instrument, from the straight lower section to the gracefully curved neck and wide bell, creating a soft and tactile outline. Interspersed among the yellow are multiple clusters of tiny, rich red spray roses, deliberately positioned to suggest keys, valves, and other mechanical features. Their saturated colour punctuates the yellow with points of focus, like notes picked out on a stave. Slender strands of dark green foliage weave subtly through the arrangement, particularly along the edges, around the neck, and circling the bell, adding a sense of natural depth and reinforcing the saxophone's three-dimensional form. At certain points, especially near the mouthpiece and bell, fine silver wires or structural stems are just visible, subtly mapping the internal workings of the design without detracting from its floral beauty. A delicate upward curve of wire emerges from the top left, in the area where the mouthpiece would normally be, resembling an elegant flourish or the tail of a musical phrase. Crafted as a bespoke funeral tribute, likely delivered to chapels and crematoria around Shadwell, Limehouse, or Stepney, this arrangement brings together the artistry of floristry and the emotional resonance of music. The yellow flowers evoke warmth, remembrance, and shared joy, while the red roses express deep love and respect, making this a moving and highly personal piece for a memorial or celebration of life.

This upright saxophone-shaped floral display, set against a plain white background, reads like a visual love letter to music and memory. The entire instrument is covered in a tightly packed layer of bright, sunny yellow florets, most likely chrysanthemums, their countless petals forming a plush, almost cloud-like surface that wraps around every curve. The familiar shape of an alto or tenor saxophone is instantly recognisable: a straight lower body rising into a gentle S-shaped neck that flows into a wide, rounded bell. Dotting this yellow expanse are numerous small, rounded red buds-perhaps miniature roses or berries-placed at intervals where the keys and buttons would normally appear, providing a delightful contrast in both colour and texture. These red accents create a staccato rhythm across the design, like notes in a favourite tune once heard in Shadwell's churches or community halls. Along one side, a few slender green stems or floral wires are visible, hinting at the underlying framework that holds the tribute securely together. Finer strands of greenery entwine around parts of the neck and bell, adding a gentle sense of movement, as if the saxophone is mid-song. Against the stark white backdrop, the yellow and red tones seem even more vivid, radiating warmth and energy despite the solemn context. This imaginative floral sculpture would make a unique focal point at a Shadwell funeral or memorial for a saxophonist, jazz fan, or anyone remembered for their lively spirit. It conveys both joy and farewell-the brightness of shared memories, the music that lingers, and the heartfelt respect carried in every carefully placed bloom. A beautifully imagined saxophone made entirely from flowers stands out boldly against a pure white background, inviting the viewer to trace its familiar, musical outline. The main body of the instrument is sculpted from countless yellow chrysanthemums, each small bloom tucked tightly against the next so that they form a smooth, cushioned surface. This dense blanket of petals follows the saxophone's curves from the flared bell up along the slim tube and into the softly arched neck, creating a golden silhouette that feels both elegant and comforting, like a favourite instrument resting after a final performance near Shadwell's riverside. Running in neat vertical lines along this yellow canvas, mimicking the placement of keys and decorative panels, are garlands of orange-red spray roses. Their diminutive blooms are threaded with tufts of fresh green foliage, which add contrast, depth, and a touch of liveliness to the design. Fine, pale green floral wires weave discreetly through the flowers, providing the internal support that allows the tribute to hold its precise shape without distracting from the overall illusion. A gentle, diffused shadow beneath the floral saxophone reinforces its three-dimensional form, as though it is perched on a display stand, ready to be placed at the front of a service. The arrangement feels deeply expressive and personal-an ideal floral tribute for a funeral or memorial in Shadwell, especially for someone whose life was closely tied to saxophone music, local jazz nights, or the simple joy of listening to melodies while looking out over the water. It is flowers and music woven together into one eloquent farewell.
