Lockets were used to store tokens of love, loss and keep sacred those parts of us we want to keep close but might not want to reveal.” Her full collection is based on the belief is that “as women, we are all multi-faceted and complex, yet we are independent and powerful enough to find light in the dark.” Miller explains, "The fact that these rings act as a locket only further emphasizes their special meaning. What’s so evocative about them is their original imagery that tells a story from the shank and top of the ring all the way through to the plaque or what Miller calls the ‘chamber’ when the compartment is opened. These rings have the look of chunky signets but the Conservatory styles slide open to reveal a secret compartment.

One of her most sought-after styles is her Conservatory Ring series which she created in collaboration with Alain Simic (Dru Jewelry xxx PV Collection) and which borrow inspiration from locket and poison rings that we have seen throughout different moments in jewelry’s history, dating back to medieval times and made popular again from the Victorian Era through the Vintage ‘70s. Her jewelry includes, ‘mantra’ pendants, which are engraved with meaningful words and sayings, weighty, gemstone and diamond-studded dog tags, shields, charm necklaces that can include daggers and crosses for protection and hope, and all styles of signet rings. Miller never imitates or re-creates, rather her sensibilities and talent takes her to new places that touch on styles of various time periods with a current and clean-lined spirit. She balances her eye for what’s fine and feminine with a rocker chic vibe in her ability to creatively mine the past for symbolic jewelry that connects women to their emotions, grace, strength and sense of humor. Her first pieces were a mix of modern iterations and found vintage pieces but as the desire for her collection grew, she began reworking all of her pieces into a theme that drew on empowerment, strength and faith in oneself and promise for a better reality. When she first launched her collection Dru Jewelry in 2013, she re-interpreted iconic symbols and images that provided hope and solace throughout history. Thea Miller designs jewelry that is as inspiring as it is edgy.
