I wonder if you could air brush sprinkles and dragees the silver color? I am thinking you would have to do multiple coats though.I haven't seen the elongated in silver, but it sure is pretty...Possibly not edible?

Along with 2 sizes of round draggee..........this is stunning hand work with piping gel :)
This kind of handwork is worth hundreds possibly thousands of pounds/ dollars, for an alternative but equally attractive finish, florist/dressmaking suppliers sell ribbon/trim like this in pearl and silver beadwork.
So unless you really want to undertake the hours for fabulous reward I'd make friends with Google lol x
I think I would try to assemble the beading faster on - perhaps? - a cut-to-design sheet of wafer paper (color matched to the cake), let set, and apply to the cake. Then cover the edges, and any bold spots, with a more precise placing of the beads.
Doing each bead by hand would drive the price up-crazy!

That could work, or even a strip of cakelace before it sets completely?

I was thinking ....if you choose one of your ball dragees to be of the smaller variety.......then you may be able to use the technique used for funfetti decorated cakes........you can map out your area for the dragees with piping gel....then place your larger dragees by hand to make an irregular pattern as was shown then have the tiny ball draggees fill in the spaces....you will need small ones because they would most easily fill in the odd spaces created by the bigger dragees......I found a video (funfetti) but would give the general idea........I did funfetti on Fondant before even though the vid is using a buttercream cake....hope it helps :)
This is super easy to do...Just paint the fondant with piping gel or a thin layer of corn syrup to make it sticky, then press small dragees onto it. No need to do anything tricky.
