This handcrafted U-shaped ceremonial garland hangs like a small portal of colour, its segmented bands speaking of ritual, welcome, and celebration. The very tips of each arm show compact clusters of creamy white flowers - delicate, cushiony heads that suggest chrysanthemum or small carnation forms - which act as a soft punctuation point where the garland is suspended. Directly beneath, a concentrated band of deep reddish-brown provides a warm, almost wooden counterpoint: textured, layered pieces that read like dried petals or carefully shaped fabric to mimic earthy tones. Flowing downwards, the main body opens into a lush, continuous arc of vivid yellow, densely threaded into fluffy marigold-like rosettes that create the characteristic visual density seen in traditional Indian malas. From the deepest point of the U dangles a bold orange pendant - a full, ruffled pom-pom of layered petals that anchors the composition and draws the eye to the centre. Small bright green elements are inserted at the intersections of each colour block, acting as visual rests and imitating leaf accents that would naturally separate fresh blooms. Under clear studio lighting the synthetic fibres catch a slight sheen while the russet areas remain soft and matte, giving the piece a layered depth. This decorative toran is suited to doorways, puja niches, and festival displays for Diwali, Ganesh Chaturthi, Onam, or weddings, offering a reusable, durable option that preserves the traditional palette of white, mahogany, gold and orange without sacrificing the ceremonial feel.

Against a pure white background, this traditional mala-style funeral garland appears almost to glow with layered colour and meaning, crafted with the care of an experienced florist used to arranging tributes for Sands End families. The garland forms a generous oval U-shape, the top composed entirely of closely packed white petals that read as calm and reverent, each one slightly curled to create a soft, cushioned texture. Tiny flecks of green foliage are woven near the upper sections, discreet yet intentional, suggesting the living thread of memory that continues even in loss. As the garland descends along both arms, the white slowly deepens into sections of rich maroon, a deep reddish-brown that grounds the design with dignity and solemn respect. These maroon passages transition seamlessly into a broad sweep of yellow petals that dominate the lower arc, their tone warm and steady, not overly bright, like sunlight filtered through a chapel window. Close to the centre, pairs of white petal clusters interrupt the yellow on either side, offering a visual pause that draws the eye towards the base. From that lowest point, a full, spherical pendant of intense orange petals hangs like a single, radiant flower, densely constructed to look like a perfectly round marigold pom. Every area of the garland is thick with small, layered petals that create a plush, almost textile feel, ideal for a long ceremony where lasting form and colour are crucial. This artificial garland would be fitting draped over a photo, casket, or memorial easel, a symbolic embrace for a final farewell. A U-shaped artificial flower garland is photographed against a clean white backdrop, its handcrafted segmentation and warm colours immediately readable even to touch. Beginning at the top of each arm are compact clusters of creamy-white florets - like tiny chrysanthemums or carnation heads - packed closely to form short upright columns intended for hanging. Below those pale crowns the garland falls into a dense band of deep reddish-brown elements, textured and layered like flattened petals or dried foliage, their matt, earthy tones creating a grounding contrast to the pale tops. As the arms curve down, the composition brightens into a wide, exuberant sweep of golden-yellow pom-pom blooms that strongly recall marigolds (genda phool) in both shape and cultural meaning; these yellow segments are plush and tightly threaded, giving the U a full, tactile weight. At the lowest central point a voluminous pendant hangs - a rounded, many-layered cluster of vivid orange ruffled petals that serves as the focal drop, echoing traditional marigold tassels used at doorways and altars. Small flashes of bright green leaf-like accents punctuate the joins between colour blocks, adding visual breathing room and a fresh contrast. Under soft studio lighting each texture reads clearly: the silky sheen of synthetic petals, the matte depth of the russet patches, and the fluffy density of the yellow and orange sections. The overall effect is festive and devotional: a durable, reusable toran suited to puja altars, doorways, Diwali displays, or wedding entrances, offering the familiar sight and symbolism of marigold garlands without the perishable upkeep typically required for fresh flowers.
