Bing Bang’s intricate contemporary shapes and tough imagery combined with the vintage feel of charms have been luring celebrities and major fashion magazines over the past couple of years.
New Mexico native Anna Sheffield, a New Yorker since 2002, is the force behind the simplicty-is-key jewelry collection. Sheffield studied blacksmithing, welding and fabrication to earn her BFA from San Francisco’s Academy of Art. She combines masculine elements like metal studs and bullets with whimsical touches including leaves, hearts and lockets to create interesting one of a kind pieces. Chains combine links of varying sizes and shapes in her all handmade collections.
Bing Bang has also expanded to the production of handbags, belts, and men’s accessories, all featuring the same attention to detailed hardware as seen in the jewelry. Fans include Mandy Moore, Cameron Diaz, Julianne Moore, and Uma Thurman and collaborations have already been produced with Marc Jacobs, 3.1 Phillip Lim, and Lutz & Patmos; and in 2007 Sheffield received a nomination for the Swarovski Accessories Award.
