Steampunk Statement Necklace

The first thing that came to mind when Angela said she was a dirt bike racer and a can can dancer was steampunk.

I originally wanted to make her a brooch to wear when she dances, but then she told she doesn't like brooches. Then I decided to make her a smaller pendant on a long chain. However, the design I had in mind didn't work with a long chain. After deciding to make a shorter statement necklace, I played around with the idea of adding stones, different chains, etc.

Angela loves dirt bike racing but I was worried that maybe I took that too literally when I designed her metamorphosis jewellery. Luckily for me, she loved it!
