FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
This image presents a serene and elegant funeral flower basket, photographed against a simple white background so every detail can be appreciated. The basket is woven from light, cream-coloured material and has a gently curved handle that frames the flowers without distracting from them. Rising from the basket is a rounded, abundant display of fresh blooms, designed with the calm precision expected from local florists familiar with the understated refinement of St James's. At the heart of the arrangement, a single creamy white rose unfolds in tight spirals, its velvety petals symbolising purity, remembrance, and the quiet strength of grief. Flanking the rose, two deep purple calla lilies arch forward, their smooth, trumpet-shaped forms bringing a sense of modern elegance that still feels deeply respectful for a funeral or memorial service. Dotted throughout are delicate clematis-like flowers in soft lavender and pale lilac shades; their star-shaped petals and tiny yellow centres introduce a breath of lightness, like a pale sky glimpsed between clouds. Interwoven with these are small, cheerful clusters of yellow and white blooms-similar to alstroemeria or freesia-that add subtle warmth without overpowering the gentler tones. On the right edge of the design, a single magenta gerbera-style flower appears, its vivid ring of petals offering a quiet, hopeful note within the composition. Enveloping all the flowers is a generous collar of greenery: broad, glossy leaves reflect the soft studio light, while finer, lighter sprigs create texture and depth, giving the arrangement a natural, full silhouette. The basket sits firmly on a white surface, its soft shadow grounding it in the frame. Overall, the image conveys a tribute that is both comforting and composed, ideal for sending condolences, adorning a service near St James's, or placing in a reception space as a gentle expression of support.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
An elegant sympathy flower basket is set against a clean white backdrop, its pale, woven wicker and softly curved handle offering a simple, traditional structure that lets the flowers take centre stage. Dominating the arrangement are beautifully open creamy white roses, their layered petals arranged in perfect spirals, creating pools of softness that speak of peace and heartfelt remembrance. Interspersed with these roses are clusters of smaller white and pale yellow blooms, freesia-like in their shape and delicacy, some already unfurled and others still held in tight buds, lending a sense of gentle rhythm and continuity. Scattered carefully among the paler flowers are star-shaped clematis blossoms in muted lavender and pale periwinkle blue, their elongated petals radiating from bright yellow-green centres that add a quiet touch of contrast and interest. The flowers emerge from a dense base of rich dark green foliage, with broad, shiny leaves and more delicate sprigs weaving between the stems, grounding the pastel tones and giving the basket an inviting, rounded silhouette. The mood is calm, thoughtful, and dignified, the sort of arrangement one might see at a funeral service in St James's or delivered to a townhouse near Green Park or St James's Street. The design does not shout; instead it offers a gentle presence, ideal for those moments when words are difficult but you still wish to express sympathy and support. Arranged by experienced local florists who understand the area's understated elegance, it would suit both formal memorials and quieter, private tributes at home.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
This image shows a tastefully arranged funeral flower basket, perfectly composed to bring a sense of calm and comfort to a service or home in St James's. The container is a light, natural wooden basket, shallow but wide, with an oval profile and four discreet little feet that lift it from the surface and add a touch of refinement. An arched handle in the same pale wood curves gracefully overhead, framing the lush floral dome that rises from within. The arrangement is full and rounded, brimming with creamy white, deep red, and soft pink tones that blend harmoniously. Fully open creamy white roses are scattered throughout, their velvety petals layered in soft spirals that speak of serenity, innocence, and a respectful farewell. Around them, rich red carnations form dense clusters, their ruffled, almost feathery petals providing depth and a heartfelt note of love and remembrance. Some carnations appear in gentler shades, pale pink with fine touches of red or darker pink along the edges, adding nuance and tenderness to the palette. Between the larger blooms, you can see smaller white flowers, likely freesias, on slender stems, their bell-like blossoms bringing a delicate, airy quality and a hint of fragrance. The greens are abundant yet measured: broad, glossy leaves in deep green create a sturdy, grounding base, while light, feathery fronds of fern or asparagus foliage rise and spill softly from the edges, lending an ethereal, almost floating feel. Bright, even lighting shows each subtle vein in the leaves and each fold in the petals, giving the arrangement a clear, composed presence. This basket would sit gracefully beside a photograph or candle at a funeral or memorial service near St James's, offering a gentle, dignified expression of sympathy and enduring love.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
Presented against a clean, white background, this dome-shaped bouquet has the composed elegance you might expect from an arrangement designed for a residence near St James's Square. The flowers form a full, rounded silhouette, artfully layered so no single bloom overwhelms another. Generous garden roses, in hues of soft pink, mellow yellow, and delicate peach, are scattered throughout the design, their spiralled petals creating a sense of depth and plush texture. Between them dance star-shaped clematis blossoms in white and pale lavender, each bloom clearly defined, its slim petals encircling a bright yellow or creamy center that adds a luminous point of focus. Rising slightly above the softer forms, blue eryngium-sea holly with its metal-toned blue-grey, spiky heads-introduces a sculptural, contemporary note that plays beautifully against the romance of the roses. Deep purple lisianthus flowers appear in various stages of opening, from tight buds to softly unfurling blooms, creating flowing transitions of colour and shape. Dotted throughout, glossy red hypericum berries bring flashes of vivid warmth, like tiny jewels catching the light in a gallery close to St James's. The bouquet is framed by a thoughtful mix of foliage: broad, polished green leaves provide strength and structure at the base, while finer, feathery greens and hints of dark, burgundy-tinged foliage thread through the arrangement, lending subtle shadow and depth. Soft, diffused lighting emphasizes the natural colours and textures without harshness, making this bouquet feel both luxurious and welcoming. It would be perfectly at home gracing a dining table in a flat overlooking Green Park, brightening a reception space near The Mall, or serving as a refined gift for birthdays, anniversaries, or heartfelt thanks in the St James's area.

COMPASSION POSY
£90.00
Set against a pure white background, this opulent round bouquet appears almost suspended in light, its mix of lilies, roses, and gypsophila arranged with the calm precision you'd expect from an experienced florist working just off St James's Street. The primary impression is of generous white lilies, their broad, trumpet-shaped petals curving gracefully outward, some fully open, revealing subtle greenish centres and pale stamens, while others remain as smooth, elongated buds poised to unfurl. Snuggled between these lilies are layers of roses in soft pastel pink and creamy ivory tones. The pink roses bring a gentle, almost wistful romance, their petals velvety and tightly coiled, while the cream roses add an understated elegance, some cups just beginning to loosen, others fully opened so that each fold is visible. Cutting through these softer shades, several Oriental-style lilies in a saturated fuchsia or magenta provide dramatic focal points. Their petals, flecked with darker speckles, create a sense of depth, and their golden-yellow stamens stand out crisply, drawing the eye. Throughout the bouquet, delicate sprays of white baby's breath weave in and out like a fine lace, filling spaces between larger flowers and giving the arrangement a light, airy halo. Glimpses of fresh green foliage-lily leaves and slender stems-peek from beneath the blooms, adding contrast and a suggestion of natural movement. The lighting is bright and even, without harsh shadows, bringing out the true whites, pinks, and greens as though the bouquet were basking in daylight streaming into a St James's townhouse window. The overall mood is one of polished romance and quiet luxury, suited to weddings, anniversaries, or heartfelt deliveries to addresses around St James's, Green Park, and the surrounding West End.
