Sarah McGuire | Mobile Earrings
Like a Calder sculpture you can wear, Sarah McGuire’s Mobile Earrings are kinetic art in miniature form. A cascade of concave, hand-textured sterling silver drops hang in perfect balance from a delicate framework of 18k yellow gold, creating subtle movement with every turn of your head.
Each element feels intentional and airy, with a soft matte finish that plays beautifully with light—more shimmer than shine, more poetry than flash. The interplay of cool silver and warm gold adds depth, making them easy to wear with anything but never blending into the background.
Lightweight and full of motion, these earrings are a modernist dream—minimal, sculptural, and quietly bold. They bring just enough drama for a gallery opening, but feel just as at home with a messy bun and oversized sweater. An everyday statement for lovers of design, asymmetry, and understated brilliance.

Sarah McGuire
Jewelry designer and metalsmith Sarah McGuire finds inspiration in organic forms, manmade curiosities, and classic modernist design. Growing up in New England, Sarah spent her summers on the beaches of Cape Cod and coastal Connecticut, collecting objects and absorbing the landscape that would later inform her work as a jeweler. She graduated from Parsons School of Design and spent over a decade in New York before moving to Chicago. From her timber-loft studio, the designer and a small team craft each piece of jewelry by hand. Sarah uses recycled metal – primarily high-karat gold and sterling – mixing it with linen, leather, rough gemstones and diamonds. With its emphasis on both design and craftsmanship, Sarah’s spare, organic work rewards scrutiny without clamoring for attention. Her goal is to make timeless, meticulously crafted pieces that can be treasured for years to come.
