Artisan keycaps come in a variety of designs, shapes, sizes, and materials, such as resin, metal, wood, and even food-grade silicone. They are typically produced in limited quantities, and many artisan keycap makers will only release a certain number of caps per design or run.

Artisan keycaps are popular among keyboard enthusiasts who want to personalize their keyboards and make them stand out. Some people collect artisan keycaps as a hobby and trade them with other enthusiasts. Artisan keycaps are often more expensive than mass-produced keycaps, but the uniqueness and craftsmanship of each cap make them highly sought-after.
