Bing Bang Accessories

The Bing Bang line has grown from women’s pieces to include bags, belts and men’s accessories. The pieces are at once raw and polished, voluminous yet weightless. "I like things a little bit rugged, yet a little bit refined," says Anna. "It's just my personal aesthetic." Each design is crafted by hand and draws heavily on Anna's background in sculpture and blacksmithing.

Working exclusively in unadorned metals, both precious and semiprecious, her upbringing in the sparse deserts of New Mexico is evident in the simplified, imperfect shapes and delicate yet durable pieces. The line is a favorite of editors at Teen Vogue, as well as Kirsten Dunst and Marc Jacobs.
