With dark black font legend on creamy beige color, this classic style was a popular color combination option for Cherry Corp's mechanical keyboards from 1986 to 2009.  We added three extra options to your liking of color. These are brand new, made with original BSP equipment, this set is perfect for keyboard enthusiasts who prefer an unassuming but classy setup for their mechanical keyboards.

Manufactured by the makers of the original company
Made with PBT with thick moulding, sublimation printing for long lasting
Keycaps fit on the more traditional mechanical keyboards with Cherry MX key switches
Made in Denmark
This keyset is made for winkeyless-style keyboards.  Most of these keyboards have winkey blockers.  This keyset is an exception as it carries 1x Window keys to replace those blockers if necessary.  The spacebar and numberpad kit (tenkeypad) will not be included.

Note: 7x Space Bar and Grey F5-F8 are not included at the time.

Brand new and unused. Originally purchased for KMAC Happy that I sold to Long.

Asking £80 GBP posted which is less than what I paid :)

Can include an original cherry 7 x space bar at asking cost. Has a little shine but fits the set perfect otherwise ;)

Those 1u Windows keys are the stuff of my dreams... does anyone know how to get hold of them without buying this full set? I have two full original Cherry dyesub keysets with 1.5u Ctrl/Alt but no way of getting a winkiy between them...

I don't understand why these colors are so rare, as opposed to the weird rainbow gradient sets that I see everywhere. To me they're the perfect keycaps. The only reason I can't buy these Originatives is because of the F5-F8 keys, the stepped caps lock, and the 1x winkeys.

A two-tone beige thick PBT keyset with black Helvetica legends -- why is this so hard to find?
