League of Legends Worlds 2022: Jeweler Tiffany is Official Summoner’s Cup Designer

Riot Games is commissioning Tiffany to take care of the new design of the League of Legends Worlds 2022 Summoner Cup.

The new Summoner’s Cup trophy for League of Legends esports is the result of Riot Games’ vision and Tiffany’s expertise in trophy design. The piece is a contemporary monument weighing approximately 20 kg and approximately 70 cm high. It took the brand’s skilled craftsmen four months or 277 hours to bring the sterling silver structure to life, using tools and techniques dating back to the mid-19th century to reflect heritage and Tiffany heritage.
