Presented on a stark white background, this traditional funeral pillow is completely covered with compact white chrysanthemums, each tiny bloom placed to form a smooth, cloud-like surface that suggests repose and dignity. The rectangular form is bordered by a pale lime-green satin ribbon, neatly pleated to create a soft, frilled edge that gently lifts the composition from its support and introduces a quiet tonal counterpoint to the white. Light falls evenly across the cushion, emphasizing the chrysanthemums' layered texture and the ribbon's satiny sheen. 

A richly textured cluster of accents sits at the upper left: two open white oriental lilies with their pale yellow stamens sit beside a poised closed bud, adding vertical grace and a subtle floral perfume. Interspersed among the lilies are deep burgundy spray carnations whose concentrated colour and frilled petals create a touch of warmth and solemnity. Lush green foliage - fine fern fronds and broader glossy leaves - provides structure and contrast, while two thin, arching strands of bright green bear grass or salal stretch from the cluster toward the right side of the pillow. Where those arches conclude lies a single deep red rosebud, a small, perfect symbol of enduring love and respect, poised against the white field. 

The white, red and soft green palette reads as a classic sympathy statement suitable for a service at the local chapel or a graveside near Long Lane and Swakeleys Park in Ickenham, offering a composed, comforting expression of remembrance crafted with careful attention to texture and balance.

A rectangular pillow-shaped floral tribute, photographed against a clean white background, densely layered with hundreds of small white chrysanthemums to create a soft, cloud-like surface that suggests quiet rest and purity. The chrysanthemum field is so close-knit the blooms read as a plush, tactile fabric beneath the eye; light skims the rounded petals, giving a soft sheen that enhances the sense of calm. Around the edge a pleated band of pale lime-green satin ribbon has been carefully tucked and folded, its subtle sheen and frilled texture defining the cushion's gentle silhouette and introducing a whisper of colour. 

On the upper left a thoughtful cluster becomes the arrangement's focal point: two open white Oriental lilies, their stamens tipped with pale yellow, stand with an unopened bud beside them, offering height and a gentle lily perfume that seems almost audible in the stillness. Intermingled are deep burgundy spray carnations whose rich, velvety tones provide a deliberate contrast to the chrysanthemum white. Lush green foliage - feathery fern fronds and broader glossy leaves - frames and deepens the grouping, while a slender arching loop of natural salal or decorative green wire sweeps from that cluster across the cushion toward the right. At the terminus of that graceful curve rests a single deep red rosebud, just beginning to unfurl, its velvet petals a poignant symbol of enduring affection and respect. 

The palette of white, deep red and soft green reads as a classic sympathy composition, appropriate for a funeral or memorial service in Ickenham or nearby Ruislip, and would sit quietly by a chapel lectern or at a graveside near Swakeleys Park, offering solace and a dignified expression of remembrance.
