Bing Bang

Anna Sheffield received her BFA from The Academy of Art in San Francisco with a concentration in blacksmithing, welding, and fabrication. The sculptural techniques learned there are inextricably linked to her jewelry making process. Sheffield has lived and worked in New York City since the spring of 2002. Drawing inspiration from all aspects of her surroundings, she mingles contemporary devices with the charm of cuious objects and antiquities.

The name Bing Bang refers to the sound of the hammer on the anvil and, in turn, the traditional handcrafted process of jewelry design. This collection features a pared-down, rough-hewn aesthetic on softly shining 14 and 18 karat yellow, white, and rose gold. It also incorporates sterling and oxidized silver for mixed metal looks.
