A carefully composed sympathy cross shown against a plain white field and photographed from a modest top angle so every botanical detail is visible. The cross's skeleton is fashioned from broad, glossy Ti-type leaves, their waxy surfaces and distinct veins arranged to form a bold green silhouette that grounds the design. At the centre and extending outward along the arms, clusters of pale lisianthus bloom in creamy whites and soft ivories, their multi-layered petals creating a feathery, reverent centrepiece. Interwoven among them are small white chrysanthemum-like flowers that bring density and luminous points, while delicate sprays of lavender-hued limonium or asters drift through the arrangement to introduce cool depth and a note of gentle contrast. Subtle filler foliage and tiny green fronds are woven in to add texture and soften the transition between leaf base and floral mass. The lighting is even and gentle, bathing the composition in a serene glow that emphasises the tenderness of the palette. Tactile contrasts are evident - the smooth, almost sculptural leaves beside the soft, papery lisianthus - creating a sensory narrative of shelter and remembrance. Suitable for church services or graveside ceremonies around King's Cross - perhaps quietly placed after a service near St Pancras or on a chapel altar - this cross reads as both a statement of faith and a personal, compassionate farewell.

A solemn, dignified funeral cross laid against a plain white background and photographed from a gentle overhead angle that emphasises its clear, isolated silhouette. The structural arms and centre are formed from large, glossy tropical leaves - think dark green Ti leaves - whose smooth, waxy surfaces and visible veins make a rich, verdant foundation that reads almost like protective wings. At the heart of the cross a dense, carefully composed cluster of soft white and cream blooms sits, dominated by ruffled lisianthus with their layered, paper-soft petals and a few closed buds that suggest quiet potential. Interspersed among these are small, round white chrysanthemums that add compact texture and a soft luminosity, while sprays of tiny, star-like lavender or pale purple flowers - likely limonium or aster - drift through the composition to give gentle contrast and a touch of cool colour. Finer green filler foliage peeks through the floral masses, lending depth and a botanical softness that prevents the design from feeling too severe. The light is even and soft, throwing no harsh shadows and allowing the delicate tonal shifts between ivory and lavender to read as calm and consoling. The overall effect is one of respectful restraint: a sympathy tribute that speaks of faith, remembrance, and peace. As a local Kings Cross memorial piece, it would be entirely appropriate for a chapel service, graveside, or wake, conveying comfort without embellishment and offering a focused visual prayer for those gathered to remember a life.

    I was worried that the flowers wouldn't be delivered on time thus I called Handy Flowers to check the progress of my order. They contacted the couriers and told me when the flowers were expected to be delivered. Very professional service!
