Craftsmanship

FAQ
Will this butterfly keycap fit my keyboard?
It is a spacebar keycap built for MX-style cross stems on boards that use a 6.25u spacebar – the most common size on 60%, 65%, 75%, TKL and full-size layouts. If your board uses a 7u spacebar, message us before ordering.
Does it actually light up?
Yes. The resin is translucent rather than painted, so backlighting passes through the body of the key and illuminates the butterfly. It looks best on a board with north-facing or diffused underglow.
Is it a full keycap set?
No. This is a single artisan spacebar keycap, intended as an accent piece to pair with the rest of the keys already on your board.
Will the resin yellow or fade over time?
Our resin is formulated for everyday desk use and resists yellowing. As with any handcrafted resin piece, avoid prolonged direct sunlight and store the keycap away from heat to keep it looking its best.
