Renders are done by Jacob, Pensa73 and Synthereal


Our MOQ is 250 for both Nori and this set now. Originally we planned on aiming for 500, but with the current market and the state of GBs that is very unlikely. Sadly these will be priced higher than most KBB sets, most likely $100-$110 base kit price.

The theme of Ashen is based on the eruption of the Changbaishan volcano, which occurred more than 1,100 years ago and is considered one of the most significant explosive eruptions in the last 2000 years. 🌋

Why do the UK keys 2" and 3£ have sublegends but the ANSI keys for 2 and 3 don't? As someone who'll actually use the UK keys I'd prefer them without sublegends because I think they'd look weird being the only number row keys like that.

Otherwise love this. Into it.
