The PBTfans Fairy R2 keycap set offers a unique blend of style and functionality, inspired by Pantone's 2022 Color of the Year, Very Peri. This set combines semi-transparent and opaque ABS materials to create a visually striking and durable keycap collection designed for Cherry profile keyboards. Ideal for enthusiasts looking to add a touch of elegance and sophistication to their mechanical keyboards, the Fairy R2 delivers both aesthetic appeal and reliable performance.
The Fairy R2 keycaps are crafted around the beautiful Very Peri shade, a vibrant and elegant purple tone recognized by Pantone in 2022. The alphas feature a softer light purple hue that complements the deeper, semi-transparent purple of the modifier keys. This contrast not only enhances the overall look but also gives the keyboard a mysterious and graceful appearance. The semi-transparent elements allow subtle light diffusion, adding depth and visual interest when backlit.
Constructed from ABS plastic, the keycaps use a combination of semi-transparent and opaque finishes to balance aesthetics and sound profile. The semi-transparent ABS material is known for its smooth texture and ability to diffuse light softly, while the opaque ABS provides a crisper, lighter typing sound compared to thicker PBT alternatives. The set is doubleshot molded, ensuring legends remain clear and durable without fading over time. Designed with the popular Cherry profile, these keycaps offer comfortable and ergonomic keypresses suitable for extended typing sessions.
The PBTfans Fairy R2 set is compatible with MX-style mechanical switches, making it suitable for a wide range of keyboards. It is available in several kit options to fit different keyboard layouts and customization preferences. These include a full semi-transparent base kit, a standard base kit, a semi-transparent numpad kit, a standard numpad kit, and matching spacebars in both finishes. This modular approach allows users to mix and match components to best suit their setup and personal style.
