The Escher Vault is a massive, shifting, labyrinthine vault within Warehouse 13, holding the personal effects of cryogenically bronzed individuals, in a manner similar to, but far less accessible than, the Warehouse Personnel Quarters Archive. H. G. Wells broke into the Vault in 2010 with the help of James MacPherson, and used the Imperceptor Vest to navigate the Vault to retrieve her personal effects. Later that day Mrs. Frederic and Artie entered the Vault, using the special goggles, and noticed that some of Wells' belongings were missing.
