Countess of Grantham, season 1

Lady Cora elegantly graces the afternoon tea with her satin robe lined with oriental lace border applique.

For my piece, I sculpted Lady Cora in Cameo following her poised look as she was having her afternoon tea. The Black lace applique was done using enhanced brooched molds and lace mats to mimick the oriental embroidery applique on her robe.The whole cake was dusted with champagne pearl dust to look like the satin robe The silver tea sets and parasol was represented by the silver fantasy flower topper.
