The Koi Haven - Artisan Keycap

High-quality resin artisans are quite durable — stronger than many plastics and resistant to daily typing wear if used on low-traffic keys (e.g., Esc instead of spacebar). Cheaper or poorly cured ones can yellow from UV/sunlight exposure, attract oils/dust, or chip if dropped/heavily used. Painted details may peel over years with heavy friction/sweaty hands.
Care tips: Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources; clean gently with a microfiber cloth + mild soap/IPA (no harsh chemicals); don't use abrasive tools. Store in a case when not in use. Many makers use UV-resistant resin or clear coats for better longevity — premium ones hold up 2–5+ years with care.

This is a 1u artisan (standard size, like Esc, Tab, Ctrl, or novelty keys). It's designed for specific spots — e.g., Esc, any 1u function key, WASD cluster, or arrows. Larger ones might be 1.5u (e.g., Backspace), 1.75u (right Shift), or 2u (Enter). Check the listing for exact size and recommended positions. It won't fit larger keys like spacebar (6.25u/7u) unless specified as a macro/ novelty set. Measure your key or share your keyboard layout if unsure!

Most resin artisan keycaps are not shine-through because they're cast solid or have thick/opaque layers for color depth and detail — light is usually blocked or very dim. If it's a translucent/clear resin base or has thin painted areas, it can allow subtle glow (medium to low passthrough). For strong RGB, look for makers who explicitly label "shine-through" or use semi-transparent resin. Always check product photos under light or ask for a video demo.
