This keyboard features keys in a Chinese "Cangjie" layout but I can also make keys in BoPoMoFo, Dayi, Wubi or any combination of those layouts. The polished brass sides are engraved with a Dragon and Phoenix, two complimentary symbols among the 4 supernatural spirits in Chinese mythology. The function keys are adorned with symbols for the hexagrams of the I-Ching.

Many of the secondary keys featured on this keyboard were customized to a particular client's tastes, but a more standardized version with English 'shift', 'enter', 'ctrl' keys, etc, is available.

     












As with all of my engraved brass keyboards, they make really cool reflections on any surface (this keyboard is pictured on a matte, non-reflective surface, not a mirrored tabletop. The reflections come from the keyboard itself).
