This piece is beautiful. Truly stunning. It was very very well done. Allow me to explain why I gave you the scores I did.

Your Vision was grand. The colors match each other perfectly, the chains and the petals are just perfect together. The Vision was marvelous and that is why yhere are 5!!

I gave you a four on your Originality. Simply because somewhere someone else has tried the same thing, which means that it's a semi common idea (Not really common, couldn't think of a different word, sorry~) that has been attempted before. When I see originality I personally think of something INCREDIBLY out of the box (Adding runic symbols that you made up yourself to the edge of the petals) But that personally is just me. I think you nailed it beautifully, which is why I gave you 4, and I don't think that this piece needs it, however, I feel like it is important to express to artists exactly how far out they can go with their pieces, and to not be afraid to try something new.
I am very, very proud of you for trying something new <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>

Your technique was as stunning as it always is! I didn't give you 5 for a very small reason, (Part of it is a pet peeve of mine, so I apologize in advance if this sounds stupidly OCD)
Your chains, while BEAUTIFULLY crafted, are not all the same length. I believe this would be fine if the 3rd had a space between it and the 2nd one, matching the 1st one. I believe that this detracts from the overall beauty of the piece, especially to other people, and potential clients, such as myself.
I didn't have this really impact your score because the craftmenship of the rest of the piece more then makes up for it!!! It is simply an opinion to be aware of <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>

Your Impact, naturally, if 5. The overall beauty, the color matching, the chains and craft. It's stunning. Truly beautiful. I or any person would be lucky to wear that to a grand event!! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=":D (Big Grin)"/>
