If you are looking for a hard material wristrest, I suggest having a look at Beast's subforum. Here is an example of what he can make:

You could try designing your own hard acrylic wrist rest or ask Beast if he can make it almost black.

Beast wrist wrest are incredible. I use one at job and it fits me perfectly. It greatly improves my typing experience. But he seems less active recently, still worth sending him a pm.


The other good option would be Noko's leatherworks. They are wooden wrist wrest covered with leather. And they look amazing. So this is probably your other best option. I don't own one from Noko, but the reviews from people that do are very good.

Try Elite Keyboards. The wrist rest they sell is of really good quality and I am typing on one right now.

3 days left for the Noko Leatherworks 60% Wrist Rest on Massdrop. Even though its designed for a 60% it would be fine on a TKL too.

Although I would order direct instead of getting the massdrop one if you are willing to spend a little more. Custom detailing and the exact size and colour you want are worth paying more for and Noko does GREAT work.

Just don't go overboard with all the detailing or you will bump the price considerably. :P
She is currently dyeing mine. She definitely puts in a lot of effort on the detailing but it looks great! :D
