A substantial Christian cross crafted entirely from a dense carpet of white chrysanthemum blooms, meticulously placed so the surface reads as a single, soft plane of floral purity. A striking, pleated ribbon in deep purple traces the outer edge, its ruffle forming a sombre frame that sets off the central hues. At the point where the cross's arms meet, a dramatic focal spray bursts with layers of color: dark violet roses with tightly furled petals, lighter lavender lisianthus with delicate crimped edges, and pale eustoma accents that lift the composition's tonal range. Variegated foliage - pale-edged leaves with darker centres - threads through the cluster, and a scattering of small green berries adds a quiet, tactile contrast. Down the vertical shaft, the letters "MUM" are spelled in compact purple flower heads, each letter modelled with care so the tribute reads as a personal message of love against the white chrysanthemum backdrop. The clean white studio background and neutral lighting allow the whites and purples to sing with clarity, while the arrangement's textures move between the pillowy chrysanthemums and the velvety rose petals, offering both visual weight and softness. The overall impression is one of composed reverence: purity balanced with dignified colour, intended for use at a funeral service, wake or graveside. Delivered with the kind of mindful handling expected for memorial pieces across Thornton Heath and neighbouring areas such as Selhurst and Mitcham, this cross speaks of enduring respect and gentle remembrance in a language of flowers.

A tender, cross-shaped funeral tribute composed of densely packed white chrysanthemum heads, each bloom layered to form a soft, pillowy surface that reads as pure and consoling. From the very edge a ruffled lilac-purple satin ribbon weaves a gentle frame, its pleated texture catching a soft studio light that lifts the cool palette without distracting from the composition's quiet dignity. At the centre, a lush cluster of deep violet roses and paler lavender lisianthus (eustoma) blooms creates a plush focal spray; the roses sit with their petals tightly filmed in rich velvet tones while the lisianthus curls delicate ruffles around them. Variegated green foliage - leaves with pale margins and darker centres - slips through the bouquet, adding gentle contrast and a hint of natural movement; tiny green berries tuck between stems to give subtle textural punctuation. Running down the vertical arm of the cross, the name "MUM" is formed from smaller purple flower heads, each letter clearly modelled so the message reads with heartfelt intimacy against the snowy chrysanthemum base. The arrangement sits against a stark white backdrop under cool, even lighting that emphasizes the purity of the whites and the depth of the purples; there is a barely-there, powdery scent like a spring garden after rain. Crafted with classical sympathy proportions, the piece is intended to bring calm and solace at a funeral, memorial or graveside service. As a local florist familiar with Thornton Heath's quieter moments - from the High Street to the station - I picture this cross brought gently into a chapel service, offering a tactile, fragrant expression of love and remembrance when words fall short.
