Absolute Flowers

Absolutely sumptuous arrangements are created by the artists bustling about the art deco tiled interior of this chic, black shop, which acts as a perfect backdrop to the richly coloured glass vases and containers stacked to the ceiling. The shop specialises in English blooms, and bouquets are kept simple with minimal foliage. Homewares and accessories are also sold. Expect to pay premium prices for the bouquets – a fact that won’t come as too much of a surprise, given the genteel neighbourhood the shop is located in. Staff are helpful but the place gets very busy, so you may have to wait before being attended to.
