In this image, a large, saxophone-shaped floral tribute stands upright against a crisp white background, giving the design a gallery-like clarity. The florist has used clusters of bright yellow chrysanthemum heads to fully cloak the body of the instrument, so that every visible surface is made of flower. Each bloom is placed tightly against the next, forming a seamless golden covering that traces the vertical stem, the dipping neck, and the flared bell of the saxophone. Among this yellow ground, fine red spray roses emerge at carefully chosen points, positioned where a musician's fingers would fall on the keys, helping the viewer read the piece instantly as a musical instrument rather than a simple abstract shape. Soft strands of deep green foliage are woven in and out of the blooms, particularly along the curved edges, giving gentle definition to the outline and evoking the complex mechanics of a real sax. Near the mouthpiece area, delicate silver or green wires curl upward, hinting at the reed and internal supports while also lending a graceful, decorative flourish to the design. This bespoke tribute feels thoughtfully created for a funeral or celebration of life, perhaps for someone known in Leytonstone for their love of jazz, brass band concerts, or evenings spent enjoying live music near Church Lane and surrounding neighbourhoods. The bright yellow chrysanthemums convey warmth, optimism, and cherished memories, while the red roses introduce a deeper note of affection and respect, combining to create a touching and highly personal piece that would sit beautifully beside a coffin or at the front of a service as family and friends say their goodbyes.

Here a full-sized floral saxophone is shown upright on a clean white background, its sculpted form carefully built from fresh blooms. The entire instrument, from the narrow mouthpiece through the gracefully curving neck to the wide-open bell, is covered in a thick layer of sunny yellow chrysanthemum florets. These small, tightly clustered flowers create a soft yet structured surface that captures the flowing profile of a real saxophone. Scattered across this yellow canvas are rounded red elements that resemble rosebuds or small berry clusters, each positioned to suggest the keys and details along the length of the instrument. The red accents stand out vividly, adding depth and rhythm to the design, much like notes arranged along a musical scale. Thin trails of green foliage and delicate stems twist along the contours, especially around the lower body and neck, bringing a hint of natural movement and helping define the edges against the bright backdrop. On the left near the mouthpiece, a few slender wires are visible, rising lightly as if illustrating an invisible melody drifting into the air. Created as a special memorial tribute, this piece would feel meaningful at a Leytonstone funeral service or wake, particularly for someone whose life was closely linked to music, from playing in local bands to enjoying performances at nearby venues and parks. The colour palette of strong yellow and rich red balances comfort and courage, making the tribute both a symbol of grief and a celebration of the energy and joy that person brought into the community around E11. The image shows an imaginative funeral tribute fashioned into the familiar shape of a saxophone, displayed against a spotless white background that highlights its colour and detail. The saxophone's form is entirely realised in flowers: close-set yellow chrysanthemums create the instrument's main body, their small, rounded petals overlapping to form a soft yet structured surface that curves gently from bell to neck. This glowing yellow expanse recalls the mellow shine of brass, as though the saxophone has been transformed into a living, fragrant sculpture. Flowing down the centre, where one would expect to see keys and tone holes, runs a slender line of orange-red spray roses, with buds and tiny open flowers arranged like a melodic phrase. Among them, short lengths of fresh green foliage emerge, casting small shadows and lending the design a sense of depth and movement. Here and there, fine light-green wires can be glimpsed, unobtrusively supporting the flowers and suggesting the delicate internal workings of the instrument it represents. A faint shadow beneath the arrangement shows that it is raised, perhaps secured to an easel ready to be placed in a Leytonstone chapel or at a crematorium service for a jazz fan or bandmate. The tribute feels both personal and artistic, as though the floral saxophone holds the memory of performances in local venues, buskers near Leytonstone High Road, or favourite records played at home. It offers a quietly uplifting way to say goodbye, using music's familiar shape and the gentle beauty of fresh flowers to honour a life lived with rhythm, soul, and heartfelt expression.
