It’s been almost a year since we first started making artisan keycaps. Since then, we have already produced 58 keycaps, most of which have a flat design.
We chose to make a keycap with a flat design because we believe in the possibility of twisting the material inside and the ability to process the surface of the keycap rather than just focusing on the shape of the keycap itself.
The possibility of twisting the material inside of the keycap is endless, and it depends on your imagination. You can even put the whole galaxy on your single keycap. Inside each of our keycaps, there are different materials mixed with the right ratio to ensure visuality. For some keycap, the material has to be placed accordingly to the original design like the design of our famous flag keycap American Flag, Canada Flag, Korean flag, to name a few. For less complexity, you can look at the Trass and Lava Keycap, or Jingle Key, each element is placed based on the brief of our chief artisan.
The surface of the keycap is also a place for us to demonstrate our ability to transform from rough to smooth and shiny. The surface has to be hand processed in various stages to ensure a stunning visual while reflecting light.
Jelly Key will stick with our initial concept of designing a keycap and extend our creativity to other aspects of handcrafted products.
We would love to let you know the most valuable thing to us is the recognition and support of mechanical keyboard communities worldwide. One of these recognitions is the “Best Artisan Keycap” in 2016, which was held by Deskthority.
