A display case worthy of Odin’s Treasure Vault
East Continental Gems of New York have established an international reputation in the world of fine gems and jewelry. But it is their passion for the MCU that has captured the attentions of fans everywhere. Partnering with Marvel has allowed them to bring to life some of the most iconic Marvel Artifacts the world has ever seen.

Juggernaut Design was tasked with creating a horizontal vitrine for Loki’s Scepter for the original premier at D23. This time, we needed to make a vertical display. Something worthy of showcasing a real Infinity Gem. *Learn more about Loki’s Scepter. See how ECG has brought it to life.
After careful planning and testing, we came up with a design that embodied a style that we coined as “Asgardian Elegance”.
About the Vitrine
This display needed to be easy to transport and activate with premium lighting and finishes. The Structural Design Team at Structural Divine provided detailed planning for production. It started with some simple sketches that later evolved into complex digital files.
The 8 exterior panels at the top and base of the display were created using a metallic foil technique. With several passes of varnish and UV coating on top of gold printed gradients. The end result is a shine that really catches your eye.
Asgardian motifs were researched from the comics and the films to bring a sense of authenticity and detail. This is for the fans. The ones that we knew would not only love the details but scrutinize them as only fans could.
We leaned into that. Calling upon comic book collector and Marvel Historian Ryan Jarvis to “kick the tires” so to speak. He also helped craft the language for the laser engraved name plate.
*No chat GPT – 100% comic book nerd energy on this one. As it should be.

Gratitude is the right attitude
We are very grateful for this project. It tested Juggernaut Design‘s capabilities and taught us a few new things. Along the way we encountered obstacles and challenges that we overcame. In the end, this display was the perfect compliment for Loki’s Scepter. Together with the horizontal version ECG now has 2 ways to display this incredible work of art. A collaboration of artisans and fans of the MCU.
Excelsior.
