GMK Lazurite
Best premium keycap set for enthusiasts seeking artistic, high-quality desk aesthetics.
This is the GMK Lazurite keycap set, designed by Jae/jaekeyed. The design is an allusion to High Renaissance art and the value of the pigment ultramarine. In ancient times, blue was an extremely expensive pigment, created by grinding lapis lazuli into ultramarine, a deep blue pigment priced as highly as gold during the Renaissance. Lazurite is the blue component of the gemstone lapis lazuli. The set is in stock and ready to ship within 5 business days. Kits available include Base, Alt Alphas, Spacebars, Gold on Blue Novelties, Blue on White Novelties, and Extension. The keysets are manufactured by GMK electronic design GmbH in Germany and use high quality 1.5mm doubleshot ABS plastic.

Know before you buy
These keycaps feature the classic Cherry profile, which is widely preferred for its sculpted, ergonomic shape and comfortable typing feel.
The set is manufactured by GMK in Germany using 1.5mm doubleshot ABS plastic. This process ensures the legends remain crisp and will never fade or wear off over time.
The Base kit provides the essential keys for most standard layouts. You may need to purchase additional kits, such as the Spacebars or Extension sets, if you are using a non-standard layout like a 65%, 75%, or Alice-style board.
GMK’s high-quality ABS is known for its smooth texture and vibrant color reproduction. While PBT is often cited for its resistance to shine, many enthusiasts prefer the specific sound profile and refined finish of GMK’s doubleshot ABS.
The set is inspired by High Renaissance art and the historical value of ultramarine pigment. The deep blue tones pay homage to the pigment derived from lapis lazuli, which was once as precious as gold.
