An elongated sympathy spray stretches diagonally across a pure white background, its serene whites and layered greens combining to create a calm, reflective mood that would feel at home in a quiet corner of Barnsbury's leafy squares. Several white oriental lilies form the focal point of the design, their large, trumpet-shaped blooms opening like gentle stars. Some lilies are fully unfurled, revealing pale pistils and lightly dusted stamens, while others remain in elegant, tapered buds that point along the line of the arrangement, hinting at beauty still to unfold. Interwoven among these lilies are clusters of lisianthus (Eustoma), their smaller, bell-shaped blossoms predominantly white with soft lavender or purple tracing the rims and veins of each petal, as though painted by hand. Many lisianthus buds remain tightly closed, adding texture and a sense of quiet reserve. The mass of deep and mid-green foliage that supports the flowers includes broad, glossy leaves that form a strong base, some of which are carefully folded or rolled into sculptural forms near the central area. Long, slender fronds, reminiscent of palm leaves, arc outward and downward, helping to create the classic teardrop silhouette that tapers to a delicate point. The spray appears fuller at the top where stems converge, then gradually narrows, guiding the eye in a soft, flowing line. The overall effect is tranquil and contemplative, making it ideal for placing on a casket, at a crematorium chapel, or at a memorial service held in and around Barnsbury. This floral tribute speaks of purity, peace, and a gentle goodbye, offering comfort through its harmonious balance of colour, shape, and texture.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
A striking red sympathy spray, gracefully shaped like an elongated teardrop, is captured against a clean white background so that every bloom and leaf is clearly defined. The arrangement begins with a broad, abundant cluster of flowers at the upper left, then narrows gradually as it flows diagonally down to a fine point at the lower right, suggesting both the weight of loss and the gentle release of farewell. Rich red roses, fully open with velvety, spiralling petals, create a focal point throughout the body of the spray. Their deep, wine-like tones are interspersed with brighter red carnations and spray carnations, whose fringed, ruffled petals add fullness and a soft, almost feathery texture. The reds move subtly from dark to light, giving the composition depth and a sense of quiet movement. Beneath and around the blooms lies an anchoring bed of foliage: broad dark green leaves provide structure and frame the arrangement, while sprigs of rounded eucalyptus in a muted, silvery green weave through the flowers, introducing a cooler note to balance the intensity of the crimson. Towards the lower right, trailing strands of fine light green foliage extend from the core, enhancing the cascading effect and softening the silhouette. The overall impression is one of quiet dignity and heartfelt remembrance, as though the spray is ready to be placed on a casket or stand at a Barnsbury memorial service. One can imagine it set within a tranquil Islington chapel or near the tree-lined streets around Barnsbury Square, offering comfort and a beautiful, traditional tribute for loved ones gathered to say goodbye.
DEEP AFFECTION CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £300
£300.00
Set against a pure white backdrop, this sophisticated sympathy sheaf flows in a soft diagonal from the neatly tied stems at the top left to the sweeping greenery at the bottom right, creating a tranquil, teardrop-like form. The arrangement is anchored by impressive Stargazer lilies, their star-shaped petals glowing in deep fuchsia-pink, edged with clean white and scattered with dark burgundy speckles that draw the eye inward. Some lily buds are still closed, green and gently flushed with pink, adding height and a sense of life continuing. Nestled among the lilies, bright magenta gerberas contribute vibrant accents, while serene white roses and gently frilled carnations bring a message of purity, respect, and tender farewell. Tiny, white, daisy-style filler flowers are threaded between the larger blooms, softening the composition and creating delicate highlights. The flowers sit within a rich frame of foliage: broad, dark green leaves build structure and a polished base, feathery fern fronds create a soft halo, and long, slender leaves arch outward, emphasising the elongated shape. Every element appears freshly placed, as though arranged that morning by a Barnsbury florist for delivery to a nearby church or crematorium around Islington, perhaps along Liverpool Road or near Caledonian Road. The spray's blend of bold colour and calming whites casts a gentle, contemplative mood, making it a thoughtful floral tribute for expressing deep sympathy and honouring a loved one's memory.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
An elegant sympathy spray in a classic tear-shaped design lies against a bright white backdrop, its form and details clearly visible, like a tribute prepared for a farewell service in Barnsbury. The arrangement widens softly at the head, brimming with delicate pastel blooms, then narrows into a graceful point, echoing the emotion of both sorrow and release. Pink roses, in varied stages from tight buds to fully opened blossoms, are placed generously throughout the display, their petals forming layered spirals that move from pale shell-pink to deeper rose, conveying warmth and affection. Nestled between these roses are clusters of white carnations and dainty white spray carnations, their finely frilled petals lending volume and a soft, cushion-like appearance, much like small clouds resting among the greenery. Supporting these flowers is a rich foundation of foliage: glossy dark green leaves provide structure and a deep backdrop, while rounded eucalyptus in a soft, silvery-green tone weaves through the design, adding both visual lightness and a subtle aroma often associated with modern Barnsbury Florist tributes. From the tapered end, slender trails of dark green ruscus and similar fine greenery spill outward, emphasising the arrangement's length and flowing lines and introducing a gentle sense of movement, as if following the slow pace of a cortege along Caledonian Road. The overall impression is one of calm, respectful beauty, a floral expression that seems perfectly suited to funerals, memorials, or graveside tributes within Barnsbury and the wider Islington community. Its colour palette and craftsmanship speak softly of remembrance, gratitude, and the enduring presence of love.
IN YOUR HONOUR CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A beautifully composed sympathy spray in shades of white and green rests against a stark white background, the flowers arranged with the kind of quiet care you might expect from a long-established Barnsbury florist. Designed as a one-sided display, the arrangement stretches diagonally from a rounded, full top left section to a more tapered, gently pointed lower right, giving the sense of a soft, flowing gesture. Central to the design are several large white lilies, their velvety petals open wide in some blooms and still wrapped tight in buds in others, symbolising both remembrance and continuity. Their open faces reveal pale green centres and slender stamens, adding a hint of colour and structure. Around them, clusters of white and cream roses provide romance and softness: some roses are compact buds, while others are partially open, their layered petals unfurling like a quiet sigh. Ruffled white carnations contribute volume and a textured, almost cloudlike effect, and scattered white Gerbera-style daisies with modest yellow or cream centres introduce a touch of simple, daisy-like cheer. Tiny white filler blossoms, reminiscent of gypsophila, trace fine lines between the main flowers, catching the light and adding a delicate lacework. The arrangement is anchored by an abundance of greenery. Broad, glossy dark green leaves form the solid base, while airy fern fronds soften the outline and give movement. Rounded eucalyptus sprigs in muted blue-green tones bring a contemporary accent and subtle fragrance. From the lower right, slender palm fronds sweep outward in a fan, accentuating the elongated shape and adding a dynamic, almost wing-like quality. The overall piece conveys calm, comfort, and quiet strength, making it a thoughtful choice for funerals, memorial services, or graveside tributes across Barnsbury, from local churches to crematoria in nearby North London.
SIMPLICITY SPRAY
£75.00
This distinguished sympathy spray, made with utmost care by florists in Barnsbury, evokes both tranquillity and heartfelt commemoration. Artfully arranged to flow diagonally, the floral display stands out against a clean white backdrop, echoing the charm of Barnsbury's tree-lined avenues. Pure white lilies, some radiant and fully open with golden stamens, others softly curled in bud, bring a sense of peace and spiritual uplift. Amidst this calm, clouds of deep pink and fuchsia roses softly unfurl, their petals casting gentle shadows and providing comfort through colour and form. White spray carnations, with their frilled edges, nestle among the more dramatic blooms, enhancing the bouquet's softness. Round green santini chrysanthemums add a playful modern accent and distinct mossy texture, much like the hidden gardens around Islington. Glossy, rich green foliage, from sculpted broad leaves to feathery sprays and slender cascading palms, forms a lush, structured bed. Small bright red hypericum berries, scattered throughout, introduce joyful notes and visual brightness, reminiscent of berries one might spot in local parks. Every line and layer of this arrangement is expertly composed, designed for graceful delivery across Barnsbury to local ceremonies or homes. Its medley of scents and textures invites calm reflection, comfort, and the warm embrace of community at times of parting.
FOREVER ADMIRED SPRAY
£75.00
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
£90.00
This image features a graceful funeral floral spray, presented against a plain white background that accentuates each bloom and leaf as if it were resting in the quiet light of a Barnsbury chapel. The arrangement runs horizontally and has a soft, mounded profile: generously full at the left where the flowers cluster closely together, and tapering gently toward the right where slender sprigs of greenery create a trailing, almost whisper-like finish. Deep crimson roses are the focal point, each rosebud and bloom tightly furled, the velvety petals curling inward to create a sense of depth and intimacy. They are artfully interspersed with numerous white carnations, whose ruffled petals resemble small clouds, offering contrast and an air of purity and consolation. The balance between the boldness of the red and the calm of the white evokes both heartfelt grief and the hope of peace. Beneath and around the flowers lies an abundance of greenery. Broad, glossy, dark green leaves form a supportive base, shaping the overall silhouette and anchoring the design. Woven among them are soft, silvery eucalyptus leaves, their muted tone and slender form bringing a cool, soothing element reminiscent of the gentle breezes through nearby Barnard Park. At the right edge, fine, lighter green stems trail outward, enhancing the arrangement's asymmetrical, crescent-like line and introducing a sense of movement and life. The spray is clearly designed as a casket tribute or significant sympathy piece, suitable for a funeral or memorial service in Barnsbury or the surrounding Islington area. It reflects the steady craftsmanship of a local florist used to creating personal, meaningful tributes during times of loss.
FOREVER BELOVED CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
Captured against a clean white backdrop, this dignified red rose funeral spray stretches diagonally from the upper left to the lower right, as though gently placed in readiness for a final farewell. The heart of the arrangement is a graceful line of deep crimson roses, their velvety petals in varying stages of unfurling, from tight buds promising fullness to open blooms that reveal intricate spirals at their centres. Nestled among the roses are clusters of soft coral-pink Hypericum berries, their small, rounded shapes lending a fine, tactile detail and a softer tone within the rich reds. The flowers rest on a bed of glossy dark green foliage, likely including Ruscus or Salal, whose broad, overlapping leaves form a strong, unified base. From beneath this foundation, airy palm fronds and slender greenery extend beyond the main shape, adding movement and helping to define the spray's elongated, teardrop-like silhouette. At the top left, the stems are neatly gathered and wrapped in a smooth band of folded green leaf, giving the design a refined finish that conceals the mechanics and highlights the florist's skill. The white background and gentle lighting allow every nuance of colour and texture to stand out: the sheen of the leaves, the softness of each petal, the rounded berries glinting subtly. This arrangement feels at home in Barnsbury, perhaps imagined resting near the tranquil corners of Thornhill Square or a local chapel, offering a timeless, composed tribute for funerals and memorial services, and expressing love, gratitude, and quiet remembrance.
EVERLASTING LIGHT SPRAY
£75.00
Set against a clean white backdrop, an elegant funeral spray in white and soft cream stretches diagonally, its form wide and full at the top left and tapering into a graceful point at the lower right. The heart of the design is a generous collection of roses in tones of pure white and ivory, their petals dense and velvety, opening in layered spirals that catch the light with a subtle sheen. Some roses are fully blossomed, while others remain partially closed, their tighter shapes providing contrast and a sense of gentle unfolding. Interspersed among them, smaller white carnations add a soft, clouded texture, with their frilled petals filling the gaps and creating a plush, continuous surface of bloom. Surrounding and supporting the flowers, a rich mix of greenery brings depth and structure: silvery eucalyptus leaves glide between stems, and darker, glossy foliage outlines the form. At the tapered end, slender ruscus fronds and trailing stems of greenery extend outward and downward, reinforcing the teardrop silhouette and adding natural movement. The spray feels calm and contemplative, as though arranged for a quiet service in Barnsbury, perhaps near the Georgian terraces and garden squares that define the area. It's easy to imagine this tribute being delivered gently to a local church or crematorium, its white flowers symbolising remembrance and peace. The composition is precise but not stiff, reflecting the steady hand of an experienced florist who understands both technique and emotion, crafting something that speaks for families when words feel too small.
DIVINE GRACE CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
HEAVENS LIGHT SPRAY
HEAVEN'S LIGHT SPRAY
£70.00
Displayed on a clean white backdrop, this elongated pink sympathy spray is arranged in a classic teardrop silhouette, full and rounded at the head and tapering elegantly towards the lower right. The eye is immediately drawn to the soft pink roses that dominate the design, each bloom unfurling layer upon layer of velvety petals. Some roses are wide open, revealing intricate centres, while others remain more modestly closed, evoking the different chapters of a life well lived. Interlacing with the roses are clusters of pale peach-pink carnations, each flower formed from countless gently ruffled petals that lend a cloud-like texture to the piece. Together, the roses and carnations create a soothing gradient of blush and pastel tones, reminiscent of the soft light that settles over Barnsbury's tree-lined streets in the early evening. Surrounding the blooms, deep green foliage forms a supportive cradle. Broad, oval leaves ground the design, while finer, more slender leaves and airy green sprigs protrude from the edges and drift from the pointed tip, adding movement and a natural, slightly cascading effect. The composition feels both considered and organic, as though it has been crafted with care by a local florist who understands the importance of a dignified farewell. Though the image is still, one can almost sense a faint, sweet fragrance rising from the roses and carnations, offering comfort to those who grieve. Ideal for resting atop a casket or gracing a memorial table at a Barnsbury funeral or remembrance gathering, this spray conveys quiet elegance, compassion, and a lasting tribute to a cherished life.
COMPASSIONATE FEELING CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
PINK ROSES
PINK ROSES SERVICE ARRANGEMENT
£90.00
This elongated red floral spray, set against a clean white background, immediately draws attention to its lush central cluster of crimson blooms. At its heart, classic red roses unfold in layered spirals, some still partially closed with a sense of quiet anticipation, others fully open and velvety, speaking of enduring devotion. Around them, rich red carnations add volume and texture, their frilled petals creating a soft, cushioned effect that feels comforting to the eye. Interspersed are several red gerbera daisies, their open, circular faces and darker centres introducing a fresh, modern contrast to the traditional bones of the design. Tiny white filler flowers, reminiscent of baby's breath or fine chrysanthemum sprigs, scatter like stars throughout the arrangement, softly breaking up the red and adding lightness. Framing this core, long palm leaves and ferny greens stretch out from the base and sides, forming a graceful tapered outline, while sturdy, darker foliage fills in the spaces within, giving the spray a full, carefully balanced shape. Near the top centre, a broad red satin ribbon is tied into a sumptuous bow, its glossy loops and long, flowing tails weaving through the flowers and echoing their deep scarlet tones. The composition feels solemn yet warmly human, a dignified tribute that would sit beautifully on a casket or stand near the front of a chapel in Barnsbury, whether for a service near Caledonian Road or close to the quiet gardens and Georgian terraces. It offers a powerful expression of love, respect, and farewell, reflecting the calm, thoughtful character of the neighbourhood.
ALWAYS IN MY HEART CASKET SPRAY
£120.00
SINCERITY SPRAY
SINCERITY SPRAY
£70.00
This elongated memorial arrangement is shown against a clean white background, allowing its colours and textures to speak clearly and quietly. The spray is full and abundant, starting with a generous, rounded cluster of blooms at one end and gently tapering to a softer point, as if the flowers themselves are drawing the eye along a path of remembrance. Bold red stargazer lilies form the dramatic heart of the design, their wide, star-like petals edged and speckled in deeper crimson, radiating both strength and emotion. Nestled closely between and around them are roses in shades of blush pink and creamy white, some in tight bud, others fully opened, their spiralling petals suggesting stories, memories, and moments shared. Ruffled light pink carnations and white daisy-style chrysanthemums fill any spaces so that the arrangement appears plush and generous, like a comforting floral blanket. Interwoven through the warmer tones, spiky blue-purple thistles and soft plumes of lavender-blue filler flowers bring in cooler hues and a touch of wild countryside charm, not unlike the natural textures you'd find on a thoughtful walk through nearby Barnsbury's tree-lined streets and green corners. Everything rests on a bed of lush, dark green foliage, with broader, glossy leaves providing structure and fine, feathery fronds softening the edges so the piece flows gracefully from one end to the other. The arrangement, likely created as a funeral spray or casket tribute, feels both traditional and personal, the sort of piece that Barnsbury Florist might prepare to accompany a final farewell and offer quiet comfort to those gathered.
