Description
Twenty-one caps cut in the shape of a heart, moulded from clear polycarbonate with no legends at all. They are not a full keyset and are not meant to be: they are the handful of keys you actually look at, swapped out to give a plain board a face.
The shape
A heart, at keycap scale
The top face is a single heart, dished slightly so your fingertip sits in it. From the side the cap is a normal sculpted row — same taper, same height as the rest of an OEM board — so it does not sit proud of its neighbours and does not feel like a novelty when you type on it.
Because there is no legend, there is nothing to misalign. The shape is the whole design.
The material
Clear PC, not painted plastic
Polycarbonate is the same family of plastic used for translucent artisans and for the shells of clear boards. It is cast in colour rather than sprayed, so the tint runs all the way through and will not flake at the corners where your fingers land.
The caps are genuinely see-through. On a backlit board the switch LED shows through the cap and lights the heart from underneath, which is the reason to pick PC over a dyed PBT novelty. On an unlit board they read as deep stained glass.
Where they go
Twenty-one is enough for the keys you touch
The 21 caps cover the cluster most people notice first: WASD, the four arrows, Esc, Tab, Caps, Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Space and a few function-row caps. Any 21-key arrangement works — you are not locked into one layout.
Most people run them as a set on the arrow cluster and WASD, then use the spare spacebar and modifiers to break up the alphas. Mixed with a plain black or white set they read as a deliberate accent rather than a full colourway.
Five colours
Pick the one that fits your board
| Red | The classic. Reads warm on a white or beige board, almost black-red on a dark one. |
| Pink | The lightest tint of the five. Works best on white boards where it stays pastel. |
| Black | Smoked rather than solid. Disappears into a black board until the backlight comes on. |
| White | Clear with a faint frost. The most neutral option, and the one that takes backlight best. |
| Blue | Saturated cyan-blue. The loudest of the five against cream alphas. |
Compatibility
Cross stems, OEM height
The underside is a standard cross mount, so the caps fit Cherry MX and the great majority of clone switches — Gateron, Kailh, Outemu, Akko and the like. They will not fit Alps, Topre or optical boards with a non-cross mount.
Height is OEM, which is the profile most pre-built boards ship with. If your board is OEM, Cherry or a similar sculpted profile, the heart caps sit level with their neighbours.
In the box
What arrives
21 keycaps in the colour you pick, plus a wire keycap puller. Nothing else — no full keyset, no switches.

Before you order
Read this first
This is an accent set, not a keyset. Twenty-one caps will not cover a keyboard. If you are buying these to dress a board you have not bought keycaps for yet, you still need a full set underneath.
Check the sizes before you commit: the set includes a spacebar, so confirm your board uses a standard 6.25u spacebar rather than a 7u or a split bar. If your board has an unusual bottom row, message us first and we will tell you which caps will fit.
Translucent caps show the switch underneath, including any dust or lube residue. That is normal for clear PC, not a defect.
