This image shows a meticulously crafted funeral wreath in the unmistakable form of a lifebuoy, set against a bright, uncluttered white background that enhances the clean lines and strong colours. The wreath forms a perfect circle, with a clearly defined central opening, just like a traditional life ring found on boats and riverbanks. Its surface is densely covered with tiny flower heads, likely chrysanthemums or similar long-lasting blooms, each one tucked closely to the next to create a smooth, plush texture. The circle is divided into four equal quarters, alternating between panels of deep royal blue and stark white, beginning with blue in the top left quadrant. The blue segments feel rich and confident, their layered petals giving an almost wave-like movement, while the white quadrants appear bright, calm, and pure, adding a sense of serenity and gentle farewell. The colour blocking is crisp, with clear transitions where one shade meets the next, demonstrating skilled, patient floristry. Along the inner rim of the ring runs a slim dark blue ribbon, folded into small ruffles, which adds a subtle frame and reinforces the nautical feeling, like a nod to ships, lifeboats, and coastal memories. The overall impression is one of quiet strength and protective love, making it an especially meaningful tribute for someone from a maritime background, the navy, or emergency services, or for a person who offered emotional 'lifelines' to those around them in New Addington and beyond. This is the sort of thoughtfully designed piece a local florist might prepare for a funeral at a nearby church or crematorium, where the bold blue-and-white contrast and symbolic lifebuoy shape help express safe passage, remembrance, and enduring respect.

A symbolic circular floral tribute is arranged in the recognizable shape of a maritime lifebuoy, its colours and textures captured clearly against a plain white background. The wreath's ring is formed from hundreds of small, tightly massed blooms, most likely chrysanthemums, creating a soft yet structured surface that suggests both care and durability. The circle is visually divided into four equal panels, alternating between two intense royal blue sections and two pristine white ones, echoing the design of a traditional life ring. The blue quadrants, set at the top left and bottom right, have a deep, comforting tone that hints at calm seas and night skies, while the white quadrants at the top right and bottom left feel airy and peaceful, like clear daylight on the water. A slender, dark blue ribbon runs around the inner circumference, folded into discreet ruffles that add another layer of texture and gently outline the central opening. That hollow centre emphasizes the lifebuoy form and becomes a focal point, suggesting ideas of protection, safe harbour, and the wish to guide a loved one onwards. The overall composition is neat and balanced, with every flower head placed to maintain the crisp separation between blue and white. This design would feel at home at a memorial or graveside service in New Addington, perhaps after a procession along central routes or near local green spaces, where family and friends gather to say goodbye. The wreath's strong nautical symbolism makes it fitting for someone connected to sailing, naval service, lifeguarding, or simply remembered as a protective, life-saving presence in the community.
