funeral wreath

Mourning flower circle

A funeral wreath is a circular arrangement of flowers, leaves, or branches displayed at a funeral or placed on a grave.

The ring shape traditionally symbolizes eternal life or the cycle of existence.

Wreaths may be laid at memorials or sent to bereaved families as expressions of sympathy: Mourners placed funeral wreaths at the base of the monument.
