Jelly Key welcomes the zodiac year of the snake with its Mystic Snake series of artisan keycaps. These come in three sizes, nine designs, and even a cool naked profile option to better appreciate the intricate designs and sculpting done of the snake and various other elements on these handcrafted keycaps.

Where pointless meets impractical, I guess.
 
Finger injuries in 3. 2. 1.
 
Well, there's a market for everything
 
Wayy outta my league :)))...$50 bucks for an escape, $100 for a spacebar, $80 for the Cap locks....look pretty no doubt about it....but my red switch keyboard is like €10 on a Black Friday. Like the whole keyboard :D
 
Yeah... I mean they DO look real nice. Is it art... well, it certainly is nice to look at. Thought went into this for sure.

But these artists certainly don't type much
 
Yeah but why?

Reminds me of early cyberpunk literature where hackers used to have their terminal made by the most exclusive artisan, but in that case it would be finely handcrafted wood for casing and pearl for the key caps, yet they were fully functional standard shape key caps iirc, surely not these things which do look nice but pertain more to nail salons than to nerdy data entry tools.
 
Looks like a colourful plate of Sushi

I think its a really clever artform honestly. Trying to make something as small as a keycap into art, its challenging, and unique. I respect it honestly.
You can tell what camp I'm in in terms of these sorts of things because I also really like YESTON's gpus.

I really do enjoy silly, overpriced, unnecessary stuff. Especially when its something as cool as basically a artform.
 
Snakes' eyes don't have their own RGB lighting. Unique opportunity missed.
 
Nice looking, impractical, destined to gather dust, impossible to clean and unpleasant to type on. Perfect keycap for a key people never use like "copilot key".
