This floral arrangement depicts a saxophone standing upright, rendered with remarkable precision using fresh flowers and greenery against a stark white background. The saxophone's body is entirely encrusted with vivid yellow chrysanthemum heads, each bloom neatly aligned so that the surface looks plush and even, tracing the sinuous neck, rounded bow, and flared bell with clean lines. Interspersed within this sea of yellow, petite red spray roses and rosebuds are strategically positioned to mark the instrument's keys and mechanisms, their deeper tones and rounded shapes adding both visual contrast and an impression of tactile hardware. Around the edges and especially along the inner curve of the neck and lip of the bell, slim strands of deep green foliage, perhaps trailing ivy and looping blades of grass, are threaded through the flowers. These green elements soften the outline and bring a sense of organic motion, echoing the flow of music through the saxophone. At the top left, a few fine green and metallic wires rise from the mouthpiece area, providing subtle structural hints while suggesting the reed and mouthpiece detail. With the pristine white background keeping all distractions at bay, the tribute feels almost like a piece of gallery art dedicated to a musician's memory. It would make a fitting memorial piece in Herne Hill for a jazz devotee, local band member, or music teacher remembered from the streets around Herne Hill station or the cafés near Brockwell Park. The yellow chrysanthemums evoke joy, companionship, and bright recollections, while the red roses introduce a quiet, heartfelt message of love and respect at a time of farewell.

A distinctive funeral tribute in the form of a saxophone is shown standing upright against a smooth white backdrop, its entire shape expressed in blooms and foliage. The body of the instrument is crafted from a dense covering of bright, lemon-yellow chrysanthemums, so closely packed that they create an almost seamless, velvety skin that follows the graceful S-curve of the sax down to its broad, flaring bell. Dotted along the front are numerous small red rosebuds and spray roses, carefully placed where a musician's fingers would rest, their rich crimson tones and compact forms suggesting keys, pads, and buttons. Twining around the design, particularly along the neck and the outer rim of the bell, are slender tendrils of dark green foliage and fine ornamental grasses, adding depth and movement while sharpening the iconic outline of the instrument. Near the top left of the tribute, emerging from the mouthpiece area, a few delicate green and metallic wires extend discreetly, hinting at the reed and hidden structure that makes this sculptural piece possible. The simplicity of the white background draws all attention to the flowers themselves, allowing every detail of texture and colour to stand out. This floral saxophone would be especially meaningful as a memorial for a music lover from Herne Hill, perhaps someone known for sharing playlists on walks through Brockwell Park or enjoying live sets in local bars along Norwood Road. The yellow chrysanthemums speak of warmth, optimism, and treasured memories, while the red roses bring a heartfelt undertone of lasting love, turning this tribute into a visual echo of a favourite tune played in remembrance. A beautifully crafted floral saxophone tribute is shown against a bright white backdrop, its bold colours and precise curves forming a touching centrepiece for a farewell. The main body of the saxophone is entirely covered with small yellow chrysanthemums, packed so densely that they resemble a soft, golden tapestry. This textured blanket of petals follows the full outline of the instrument-the straight central shaft, the rounded bell, and the smooth rise of the neck-making the saxophone instantly recognisable even through touch-based description. Along the front, in place of metal keys, a succession of orange-red spray roses has been worked into the design. These tiny, intricate roses, dotted along with fragments of fresh green foliage, create a lively rhythm of colour running the length of the instrument, like a musical scale flowing upward. The interplay of bright yellow, rich red-orange, and crisp green gives the tribute a spirited yet respectful character, reminiscent of a jazz melody drifting across Herne Hill's Sunday market or echoing from a local pub's open mic night. Subtle, light green wires and hidden supports keep the floral structure perfectly in place, barely visible but essential to maintaining its instrument-like form. A gentle, diffused shadow beneath the saxophone suggests it rests on a board or easel, ready for a service at a nearby church or crematorium serving Herne Hill families. The piece carries a quiet emotional resonance: it honours not only a life lived, but also the music, laughter, and memories that accompanied that life, offering a final floral performance filled with warmth and grace.
