GMK Mercury borrows element 80 for a name and the metal itself for a palette: alphas in pale silver, modifiers in a darker slate, the two shades meeting across the board like a liquid and its shadow. Designer kekaiyo staged the renders on a periodic table, with Hg called out in the corner.

The caps are GMK’s own, double-shot ABS 1.5mm thick in Cherry profile, made in Germany for MX-style switches. Oblotzky Industries sells the base kit for €108.40, with NorDeUK, spacebar and novelty kits alongside; the novelties add a few red accents. The images are 3D renders, and the store notes that final colors may differ slightly.
