Here, a life-sized saxophone made entirely from fresh flowers is presented upright against a simple white background, creating a striking and emotive funeral tribute. The main structure of the saxophone-its long body, sinuous neck, and gently flared bell-is expertly sculpted using hundreds of small, bright yellow chrysanthemum florets, packed so tightly that they form a soft, uniform surface like a blanket of petals. The yellow hue is vivid but comforting, evoking warmth, friendship, and gratitude, much like the welcoming feel of Dulwich Village on a sunny day. Dotted across this golden canvas are clusters of tiny, deep red rosebuds or spray roses, positioned deliberately where the instrument's keys, valves, and decorative details would naturally sit, so that each pop of red becomes both an anatomical feature of the saxophone and a symbol of remembrance and love. Threading delicately through the design are trailing lines of green foliage, perhaps ivy or a similar slender leaf, following the saxophone's outline and wrapping around key curves and joints. These touches of green add realism and a sense of movement, suggesting music flowing gently through the instrument. Near the top left, at the mouthpiece area, a few thin metallic or green stems project subtly from the flowers, hinting at the hidden wire frame that shapes and supports the tribute while echoing the shape of a reed. The overall feel is one of thoughtful artistry and quiet celebration, making this arrangement an ideal tribute for a funeral, memorial service, or church farewell in Dulwich, especially for a loved one remembered through the joy of jazz, brass band performances, or evenings spent listening to live music.

A distinctive saxophone-shaped floral arrangement is shown standing upright against a crisp white background, its details so carefully rendered that it reads instantly as a musical instrument sculpted from flowers. The entire saxophone is cloaked in a dense covering of bright yellow chrysanthemum blooms, each floret tightly clustered to form a seamless, textured surface that traces the familiar curve from the mouthpiece down to the wide bell. The yellow colouring radiates a hopeful brightness, bringing to mind the mellow glow of stage lights at a small music venue near Dulwich or Herne Hill. Scattered artfully across this golden base are petite, rounded red rosebuds, placed exactly where the keys, buttons, and tone holes would appear on a real saxophone, giving the piece both structural realism and a moving sense of devotion and remembrance. Interwoven throughout the flowers, fine threads of trailing green foliage, perhaps ivy, gently outline the instrument's silhouette, wrapping around the neck and body, and softening the edges with natural lines of movement. Near the top, where the mouthpiece would be, a few slender wires or stems extend slightly outward, discreetly acknowledging the mechanics that support the floral sculpture while evoking the idea of a reed. The setting is simple and uncluttered, with soft, even light that enhances the purity of the yellow, red, and green tones and emphasises the rich textures of petals and leaves. This bespoke floral saxophone is clearly intended as a touching funeral tribute or memorial arrangement in Dulwich, perfect for honouring a musician, jazz lover, or anyone whose life was woven through with music and performance. This photograph presents an imaginative floral saxophone tribute, crafted with the kind of skill and care you might expect from a long-established Dulwich florist. Against a bright white background, the whole form of the saxophone is rendered in densely packed yellow chrysanthemums, their tiny, rounded petals forming a soft, tactile surface that traces every curve of the instrument. The wide bell at the bottom opens gracefully, its circular edge carefully defined, while the tall, slender body and the gently curving neck create a continuous, flowing line that immediately evokes the idea of music. Running vertically down the front of this floral instrument is a series of orange-red spray roses, arranged in a delicate garland that stands in for the keys and ornamental details, with small flashes of fresh green foliage adding contrast and a hint of depth. Fine, light green floral wires and the underlying frame are just visible if you look closely, subtle but essential, showing the behind-the-scenes craftsmanship needed to hold such an intricate design securely. A soft, blurred shadow beneath the saxophone helps it feel grounded and three-dimensional, as if it has been placed on a stand at a funeral service in Dulwich or a memorial gathering near Lordship Lane. The overall mood is tender and expressive: the piece seems to hum with an unplayed tune, making it a meaningful choice for commemorating someone from the Dulwich community who loved jazz, big band music, or simply the joy of a well-loved instrument, turning a farewell into a gentle echo of the melodies they leave behind.
