This image shows a substantial funeral cross, crafted with meticulous skill, lying against a clean, bright white background so that every floral detail is clearly visible. The entire cross, from the top of the vertical arm to the tips of the sides, is densely packed with small white spray chrysanthemums, their petals overlapping to form a plush, velvety surface. The blooms are consistent in size and freshness, giving the impression of purity and calm, like freshly fallen snow that has been gently shaped into the symbol of the cross. Around the outer edge runs a continuous band of royal blue satin ribbon, neatly pleated and smoothed so it hugs every curve and corner, adding a refined frame that catches soft reflections in the light. At the central intersection, a lavish grouping of royal blue flowers forms a striking focal point: ruffled blue carnations, perhaps combined with slender stems of blue delphinium or orchid, rise from a bed of dark green fern fronds and broader, glossy leaves. This bouquet at the heart of the cross brings depth, height, and a vibrant contrast that suggests hope and devotion amidst sorrow. On the vertical stem, the dedication "DAD" is artistically formed from loops and folds of the same blue satin ribbon, each letter standing clearly against the white chrysanthemum cushion. The design feels deeply personal, as though arranged specially for a cherished father whose life is being celebrated. This type of floral tribute would be a familiar and comforting sight at a funeral in Catford, perhaps travelling from a local florist near Catford Broadway to a church service or graveside gathering, offering a graceful symbol of peace, love, and remembrance.

A beautifully worked funeral cross for a beloved father fills the frame, set against a plain white background that highlights the colours and textures. The cross itself is built on a thick base of tightly clustered white spray chrysanthemums, each flower head positioned closely to its neighbour so the surface looks smooth and luxuriant, like a white quilt of petals. Along the entire outline of the cross runs a royal blue satin ribbon, its rich colour and gentle shine providing a clear border that sharpens the shape and introduces a note of solemn elegance. At the centre, where the arms meet, the florist has created a vivid arrangement of royal blue blooms: frilled blue carnations and lighter, more delicate blue delphinium or orchid flowers are gathered together, ringed by layered green fern and leafy foliage. This central spray adds height, depth, and a focal point that draws the gaze inward. Running down the vertical stem, the word "DAD" is carefully spelled in sculpted loops of the same blue ribbon, the letters resting directly on the cushion of white chrysanthemums. This small but powerful detail turns the cross from a general sympathy tribute into a private message of love and gratitude for a father. The overall effect is peaceful and reverent, with the cool blue and white palette suggesting serenity and faith. It is easy to imagine this cross being carried to a service in Catford, perhaps to a church near Canadian Avenue or a chapel by Ladywell Cemetery, where it would stand as a tender and respectful farewell.

    The tribute was perfect. I requested to have the ribbon color changed and they were nice enough to arrange that. Good florists.
