This carefully crafted floral saxophone, standing tall against a plain white background, looks as if it might have once played over the hum of Shadwell's streets before being transformed into flowers. The main body, neck, and bell of the instrument are fully sculpted from hundreds of fresh yellow chrysanthemums, each small bloom positioned tightly side by side so the eye reads one continuous expanse of soft, golden texture. The gentle curve of the neck flows naturally into the rounded bell, capturing the iconic silhouette of an alto or tenor saxophone. Along the central line where keys would be, deep red rosebuds and tiny red spray roses are tucked into the yellow surface, each bloom acting as a key, adding intricate points of colour and formality. Threads of deep green foliage, including trailing vine-like leaves and fine strands of bear grass or similar greenery, wind gracefully around the floral structure, emphasising the bends and edges and bringing an organic, almost musical movement to the design. Some slender metallic or green floral wires are just visible around the mouthpiece area, discreetly suggesting the instrument's finer workings and supporting the vertical shape. The white background keeps every detail clear and uncluttered, focusing attention on the contrast between the sunny yellow chrysanthemums and the passionate red roses. This bespoke funeral tribute, the sort of piece a Shadwell Florist might create for a service in a nearby church or crematorium, feels deeply personal, ideal for honouring a saxophonist, a jazz fan, or someone known for their love of music and nightlife along the Thames. The overall impression is of light, love, and remembrance expressed through the familiar form of a favourite instrument.

A large floral saxophone stands upright against a clean, white backdrop, its bright colours and bold form drawing immediate focus, as if ready to serenade a final farewell somewhere between Shadwell and the City. The entire instrument, from tapered mouthpiece to flared bell, is formed from a dense mass of sunny yellow chrysanthemum florets, each bloom pressed closely into the next to give a plush, uniform surface that echoes the smooth metal of a real sax. The curves and angles of the body are faithfully rendered, creating a recognisable silhouette associated with jazz and soulful melodies. Punctuating this golden surface are clusters of small, rich red rosebuds and spray roses, placed carefully where the keys and buttons would sit, lending depth, structure, and a touch of romantic intensity to the design. Fine strands of dark green foliage and trailing grasses weave delicately along the contours, particularly around the curved neck and bell, adding texture and suggesting the elegant metalwork of the instrument. A few thin green and metallic wires peek subtly from the mouthpiece area and along the side, hinting at the hidden support framework that allows the tribute to stand proudly. The arrangement feels both artistic and reverent, perfectly suited to a funeral or memorial for a music lover, band member, or someone who cherished evenings in nearby jazz bars and music venues. The cheerful yellow chrysanthemums evoke memories of laughter and sunny days, while the crimson roses symbolise deep affection and respect, creating a harmonious, music-themed tribute crafted with the quiet skill of a local Shadwell florist. A lovingly crafted floral saxophone dominates the frame, set against a pure white background that makes every petal stand out in clear, gentle light. The main body of the instrument is entirely covered in compact yellow chrysanthemums, the small blooms placed so closely that they form a seamless, velvety skin along the curving tube and around the softly flared bell. Their cheerful yellow tones recall the sheen of polished brass, yet feel wonderfully soft and comforting, as if the instrument itself has been wrapped in sunlight. Running vertically along the front, where the keys of a real saxophone would glint, the florist has woven slim lines of orange-red spray roses. These dainty roses, with their tight clusters of petals, form little islands of colour that ripple down the arrangement like a flowing tune. Intertwined with them are touches of fresh green foliage, adding definition to the shape and inviting the eye to follow the instrument's contours from the neck's upward curve to the open bell. Subtle, light green structural wires trace the inner arc and edges, just visible enough to suggest the technical expertise behind the tribute. A soft, blurred shadow beneath the floral piece gives it depth, as though it rests on a stand ready to be placed by the coffin or memory table at a Shadwell funeral service or crematorium nearby. This design feels especially fitting for commemorating a saxophonist, a jazz lover from the streets around Shadwell station and the Thames, or anyone whose personality was as warm and expressive as a favourite tune played late into the evening.
