Mix a thin batch of plaster of paris, consistency of pudding.
Mix in some honey combs cereal (or something identifiable by shape that is porous enough for the plaster to stick to) A large zip-lock bag makes it easy to gently but thoroughly mix the plaster into all nooks & crannies.
Pour it into a bowl from a thrift-shop.(buy an old spoon and get a place-mat and a cloth napkin while you're there.)
Top it off with a bit more plaster to look like milk and cereal but leaving plenty of cereal above the surface,
Let it set up for a couple days. When completely dry, carefully remove the hunk of plaster and cereal from the bowl. The bowl's flexibility and shape will determine whether you can get the hunk of cereal-embedded plaster back out of the bowl for the next step.(no undercuts, no interior texture or ridges, a flexible bowl is easiest.)
Spray paint the plaster and cereal silver, be sure you get all the cracks, nooks, etc.
Paint one side, let it dry, and then paint the other sides, etc.
Glue it back into the bowl with a dollop of epoxy out of view at the bottom of the bowl.
Make a glued down place setting with the place mat, cloth napkin, spoon and bowl.
Figure out how to label the whole thing with "Made in China" stickers or
(extra credit: Incorporate a breakfast serving tray dressed with a flower in a bud vase, a cardboard milk carton with some silver paint dribbled out of it like silver milk. Made in China sticker.)
One last though, they make RTV silicone caulking that looks like stained glass leading. You can use that to make metal colored rubbery stuff. Soft yet apparently metal. That stuff is tricky to work with though, research first.
