FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET
£60.00
In this image, a pale woven funeral basket sits alone against a pure white backdrop, the simplicity of the setting allowing every detail of the arrangement to speak clearly, much like the quiet dignity of an Oxford memorial service. The basket is crafted in an off-white tone with a prominent, curved handle that arches protectively over the flowers, suggesting an embrace of comfort and care. At the heart of the composition lies a creamy white rose, its velvety petals tightly wrapped in a classic spiral, embodying purity, remembrance, and unspoken affection. Framing this central rose are deep purple calla lilies, their smooth, trumpet-shaped blooms curling inward with understated drama, adding richness and a ceremonial feel that echoes the historic gravitas of Oxford's colleges and churches. Threaded between them are clusters of soft lavender and pale lilac clematis-like flowers, each star-shaped petal tipped with a faint glow of yellow at the centre, lending lightness and a touch of garden romance. Sprays of small yellow and white, bell-like blossoms-freesia or alstroemeria in style-punctuate the greenery, offering gentle sparks of brightness, the visual equivalent of whispered words of comfort. Toward the right, a single magenta gerbera daisy leans forward, its perfectly radiating petals adding a bold yet tender note, perhaps symbolising one vivid personality remembered among many. The entire design is cradled by an abundance of glossy, rounded leaves and finer light green sprigs, which form a lush, verdant cushion beneath the flowers. Rounded and carefully balanced, this professionally arranged tribute would sit beautifully beside a framed photograph, on a lectern, or near the front of an Oxford chapel, conveying heartfelt condolences with grace and refinement.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
The photograph shows a beautifully composed sympathy basket, designed in a calm, contemplative style that would be at home in any Oxford memorial setting. A light-toned wicker basket, almost ivory in colour, sits on a white background, its weave neat and fine, with a matching handle that curves smoothly from one side to the other. The flowers rise in a soft, rounded mound above the rim, anchored by several large creamy white roses. These roses are fully open, their layered petals lush and velvety, inviting you to imagine their gentle fragrance and the quiet messages of love they carry. Threaded among them are pale lavender clematis blooms, each one star-shaped with a striking yellow-green centre that flickers visually like candlelight in one of the city's historic chapels. Clusters of smaller white and pale yellow flowers-freesia-like in their shape and lightness-are scattered through the design, some in tight buds, some just beginning to blossom, evoking a sense of unfolding remembrance. Ruffled white flowers akin to lisianthus fill any gaps, adding a soft, cloud-like quality. Framing the blossoms is a generous collar of deep green foliage, glossy and fresh, providing contrast that makes the pale petals appear even more luminous. The colour harmony of white, cream, lemon, and soft lilac feels appropriate for condolence flowers being delivered to homes in Jericho, Cowley, or Botley, or placed beside a casket at a local crematorium. The mood is serene and respectful, a quiet expression of sympathy and support during times of loss in the Oxford community.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
This image captures a delicately balanced funeral flower basket, arranged with the quiet respect that suits a farewell in Oxford, from the historic colleges near the High Street to the quieter suburbs beyond. The base is a light, natural wooden basket with an elongated oval shape, constructed from narrow, even slats that give it a handcrafted feel. It stands on small, subtle feet, lifting it slightly and giving the whole piece a sense of importance, while an arched handle curves gently over the top. Resting within this frame is a rounded mound of fresh flowers and foliage, shaped so that the blooms appear to rise and then softly cascade towards the edges. At the centre are open creamy white roses, their layered petals unfurling in soft spirals, inviting the fingertips to imagine their silky texture and suggesting peace, reverence, and unconditional love. Around and between them sit numerous red carnations, each head full with ruffled petals, creating pockets of deep colour and textured interest. Interspersed throughout are lighter carnations in blush and white, some with pink or red edging, which lend subtle variation and soften the contrast between the strong red and the gentle ivory. Slender sprays of small white flowers, similar to freesias, thread upwards, some in bloom, some still waiting to open, representing continuity, hope, and quieter moments of reflection. The whole composition is supported by a base of lush greenery: broad, glossy leaves provide a solid foundation, while delicate, feathery stems reach outwards, giving the tribute an almost garden-like naturalness. Against the bright white background, the arrangement feels both intimate and composed, the kind of sympathy basket that would bring comfort whether placed in an Oxford chapel or delivered to a family home near Port Meadow or Jericho.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
Photographed against a pure white background, this lush bouquet forms a rounded dome of colour and texture, like a carefully crafted arrangement waiting on a workbench in an Oxford studio near Jericho. At its heart, generously petalled garden roses in shades of soft pink, warm yellow, and creamy peach dominate the composition. Their petals twist in delicate spirals, some blooms fully open and relaxed, others partly closed, giving the arrangement an organic, breathing quality. Weaving gracefully among the roses are clematis flowers with fine, star-shaped petals in pale lavender and white. Their open, almost translucent petals frame bright yellow centers, bringing a light, airy touch that softens the denser forms around them. Piercing through the pastels are stems of blue eryngium, or sea holly, with spiky, metallic blue-grey heads that add distinct texture and a contemporary edge, echoing the contrast of old stone and modern life along the High Street. Between these structural accents nestle velvety purple lisianthus blooms and buds, their ruffled edges and deeper tones providing visual depth and a sense of gentle movement. Bright red hypericum berries, smooth and bead-like, are scattered throughout the bouquet, creating vivid flashes of colour that catch the eye. A generous foundation of mixed greenery supports the entire arrangement-broad, glossy leaves, fine, feathery sprigs, and hints of dark, burgundy-tinted foliage that lend richness and subtle shadow. The overall impression is one of elegant abundance and thoughtful design, the kind of bouquet that would feel at home in an Oxford college room, a North Oxford townhouse, or as a celebratory gift delivered after a successful exam or promotion.

Presented against a seamless white backdrop, this lush, globe-shaped bouquet of lilies and roses looks as if it has just been arranged on a workbench in an Oxford florist's studio. Large, snow-white lilies provide the main architectural structure, their trumpet-shaped blooms opening in sweeping curves while a few elongated green buds hint at flowers still to come. Nestled tightly around them, blush pink and creamy ivory roses form a soft halo, some still tightly furled, others fully open so that their velvety petals create layered rosettes that invite the imagination to linger on their gentle fragrance. Cutting through this serene blend of whites and pastels are vivid fuchsia and deep magenta Oriental lilies, likely Stargazers, whose petals are flushed with rich pink and sprinkled with darker speckles, their yellow anthers adding a bright spark at the heart of each bloom. Throughout the bouquet, delicate sprigs of white baby's breath weave in and out, filling gaps and forming a fine, mist-like texture that softens the composition's dense, rounded form. Hints of fresh green foliage peep out from the mass of petals, adding depth and a sense of natural ease reminiscent of strolling through Christ Church Meadow or along the river by Folly Bridge. The lighting is bright and even, creating a vivid, lifelike impression of each blossom's shape and texture without harsh shadows. The arrangement's mood is romantic yet versatile, suitable for a graduation celebration in the city centre, a birthday in Headington, or a quiet gesture of affection sent to a loved one in Cowley.
