FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY BASKET

This image shows an elegant funeral basket arrangement styled with the quiet grace you might expect from an experienced Highbury florist, set against a plain white studio background that puts every colour and curve into focus. The light, cream-coloured woven basket has a gently arched handle, its subtle texture and off-white tone giving the piece a comforting, homely feel that would sit beautifully at a remembrance gathering near Highbury Corner or along nearby residential streets. Overflowing from the basket is a rounded mix of blooms and foliage. At the centre, a single creamy white rose opens with flawless symmetry, its velvety petals evoking peace, love, and farewell. Framing it, two deep purple calla lilies rise and sweep outward, their sculptural, trumpet-shaped forms adding a sense of structure and quiet drama. Interwoven among them are starry clematis-like flowers in tones of lavender and pale lilac, each bloom marked by slimmer pointed petals and a soft yellow core, bringing an almost weightless delicacy to the design. Small bursts of bright yellow and clear white flowers, akin to freesia or alstroemeria with their bell-like blossoms, are dotted through the arrangement, offering sparks of light and gentle optimism without disturbing the respectful mood. On the right side, a single magenta gerbera-style daisy steps forward, bold and cheerful, its many slender petals radiating like sunrays, symbolising cherished memories. All of these elements are supported by a rich collar of greenery, from broad, dark, glossy leaves to finer, lighter green sprigs that create fullness and texture. A soft, natural shadow grounds the basket, giving it presence. The result is a thoughtful sympathy tribute, combining soothing colours and expert craftsmanship for funerals and condolence deliveries throughout Highbury.
TREASURED MOMENTS BASKET
£65.00
This elegant funeral flower basket appears almost like a small garden gathered into a light wicker cradle, photographed against a white background that emphasises its gentle colours. A softly curved, pale handle frames the composition, drawing the eye down into a rounded dome of blossoms. Dominating the centre are full, creamy white roses, their petals unfolding in serene spirals that convey dignity, love, and a sense of peaceful farewell. Nestled alongside are pale yellow and white, freesia-like flowers, some open and some still in bud, adding fine texture and the impression of a quiet, lingering scent. Scattered thoughtfully throughout, pale lavender and periwinkle clematis blooms stretch their star-shaped petals outward, each bloom with a vivid yellow-green centre that glows subtly against the cooler tones, like a shaft of light along a shaded path in Highbury Fields. Additional white filler flowers with soft, ruffled edges - reminiscent of lisianthus - ensure the arrangement looks complete from every side, with no gaps or harsh lines. A generous collar of deep, glossy foliage and lighter green accents supports the blooms, suggesting the calm greenery of Highbury's residential squares and terraces. The palette remains cool and luminous, evoking early morning light before the streets around Highbury Corner fully stir to life. Though designed for moments of loss, the basket carries a quiet hopefulness, making it suitable for funerals, cremations, or memorial services, as well as condolence deliveries to homes near Highbury Barn, Arsenal, or Canonbury. The overall effect is one of gentle reassurance, as if the flowers themselves are offering a soft-spoken message of remembrance and care.
PEACE & PURITY BASKET
£65.00
A tender and dignified funeral arrangement is captured in this photograph, perfectly suited to accompany a service in Highbury or a quiet family farewell at home. The flowers are gathered in a light-colored wooden basket, oval and slightly elongated, resting on four small feet that lift it gently from the surface. Its pale slats and soft-toned arched handle offer a neutral, comforting frame for the blossoms within. The bouquet rises in a smooth, rounded mound that appears to overflow the basket's rim with carefully controlled abundance. Several creamy white roses sit prominently among the flowers, their fully opened, velvety petals curving outward in layered spirals that speak of purity, respect, and a serene farewell. Interspersed with these are rich red carnations, their densely ruffled petals and velvety depth giving the piece a heartfelt, emotional intensity. Some carnations carry softer hues, with white petals tinged or edged in pink and red, lending a gentle, almost nostalgic quality. Slim stems of small white blooms, reminiscent of freesias with their open, bell-like flowers, weave between the larger blossoms, adding delicacy and a sense of quiet movement. Beneath and around the flowers, glossy dark green leaves form a substantial base, their broad surfaces catching the light, while feathery fronds of fern or asparagus plumosa emerge from the top and sides, adding airiness and a touch of natural wildness. Against a bright white background, every petal, leaf, and vein is clearly visible, highlighting the careful work of a skilled Highbury florist. The overall impression is one of calm, compassion, and respect-an ideal floral tribute for funerals, memorials, or condolence deliveries across Highbury, Canonbury, and nearby streets.
REMEMBRANCE BASKET
£60.00
This lush, rounded bouquet appears almost sculpted against a pure white backdrop, the kind of clean canvas that makes every flower read clearly, as though you were running your fingertips across each petal from a chair by Highbury Barn. The arrangement is densely built into a dome, brimming with garden roses in soft pink, mellow yellow, and gentle peach. Their petals fold and swirl like layers of fabric, with some roses open and generous, others still in more modest buds, creating a sense of life and growth. Among them, starry clematis flowers in white and pale lavender stretch outward, each bloom centered with a soft yellow core that adds a luminous point of focus. Blue eryngium, also known as sea holly, thrusts upward in spiky heads of metallic blue-grey, their architectural form and slightly wild character cutting through the romantic sweetness of the roses. Rich purple lisianthus blooms appear in varying stages, from tightly ruffled buds to unfurling cups, lending depth and a hint of drama. Throughout the bouquet, clusters of small, glossy red hypericum berries bring playful colour and a rounded, bead-like texture. The flowers are cradled by a foundation of varied foliage, including broad, polished leaves, lighter feathery greens, and touches of deep, burgundy-toned stems that enrich the palette. Gentle, diffused light washes over the bouquet, leaving only a faint shadow beneath, emphasizing its volume without overwhelming the finer details. The resulting composition feels joyful, refined, and versatile-a bouquet suited to celebrations on Highbury New Park, quiet anniversaries, or simply lifting the mood of a home with a burst of garden-inspired beauty.

Set against a pure white background, this lush, dome-shaped bouquet looks like it has just been lifted from the workbench of Highbury Flowers after careful, unhurried craftsmanship. The arrangement centres on several large white lilies whose trumpet-shaped blooms open outward, their satin-finished petals curving elegantly and revealing soft green centres and pale stamens. Among them, roses in pastel blush pink and creamy white are tightly clustered, some buds still closed and smooth, others fully open and layered like delicate fabric, exuding a quiet sense of romance and affection. Punctuating these gentle shades are rich fuchsia Oriental lilies, reminiscent of Stargazer varieties, their vivid magenta petals speckled with deeper hues and tipped with golden anthers that catch the light and lend drama to the design. Fine sprays of white baby's breath weave in and around the larger flowers, forming a cloud-like texture that gives the bouquet an airy, almost weightless quality. Slender green leaves and glimpses of stems appear at the edges, adding freshness and a natural, garden-inspired feel, as though the bouquet could have been gathered from a hidden Highbury garden just off the main streets. The lighting is bright, even, and flattering, enhancing each petal's texture and colour while maintaining a soft overall impression. The finished effect is one of elegance and emotional warmth, making this bouquet ideal for romantic gestures, milestone birthdays, anniversaries, or any moment where you wish to send a heartfelt message with flowers that feel both classic and contemporary in the Highbury area.
