Handcrafted 1u Resin Keycap – King of the Dead

Haunting and regal, this handcrafted 1u resin keycap brings to life the spectral visage of the King of the Dead from The Lord of the Rings. Encased in a crystal-clear resin dome, the ghostly figure emerges from the shadows — crowned, hollow-eyed, and bound by the curse of unfulfilled oaths. Every detail, from the bone-like contours of his face to the weathered cracks in his ancient crown, is sculpted and painted by hand, capturing the eerie presence of the cursed king.

Set against a dark, misty backdrop with subtle green and blue undertones, the King’s face seems to glow faintly from within — echoing the otherworldly light of the Dead Men of Dunharrow. The translucent resin enhances this spectral effect, adding depth and dimension, as if his spirit is suspended in time, waiting to be summoned once more. Shadows swirl around him, creating a chilling but captivating atmosphere.

This keycap is a tribute to one of Middle-earth’s most unforgettable figures — a symbol of lost honor, unbroken curses, and ancient power. Whether you're a devoted fan of Tolkien’s legendarium or a lover of dark fantasy design, the King of the Dead keycap adds a mysterious and commanding presence to your keyboard setup.
