How Is The Texture At The Silver Detail Created On The Top Edge Of These Tiers?

AThose edges are crimped. You just need a crimper to pinch the soft edges of your fondant. Then you can paint them silver or leave them.
Yes, it's a closed curve serrated crimper, like this one here. www.pmecake.co.uk/essential-equipment/990-closedcurveserratedcrimper34in.html?search_query=crimper&results=34
It looks as if the decorator crimped all the way round the edge, then came back with a Dresden veiner tool and made little lines above and below the crimped line where the individual crimps meet. Very pretty
Glad it helped! I don't work much with buttercream, but I don't think it would hold up to being crimped.
AI can't imagine it working the same way with buttercream - you need the flexibility and smooth finish of the fondant for crimping.
