Chose to make a work Edwardian (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

opted

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'chose' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a work edwardian' is the wordplay.
'a work' becomes 'op' (abbreviation for opus).
'edwardian' becomes 'ted' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'op'+'ted'='OPTED'

'to make' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for opted that I've seen before include "Made choice, selected" , "Selected from depot" , "Decided as in 10 Across" , "Plumped (for)" , "'Decided on, chose (5)'" .)
