I'm about to begin restoration on a very nice Cremona style "G" nickelodeon with open flute pipes. Its in remarkable unrestored condition but the ivory is mostly missing. Even the orignal finish has been successfully restored and I really hate to put bright white new keytops on it. I don't want fake looking plastic ivory look alikes either. Does anyone know a a decent looking new keytop material that doesn't look to plastic like one of those cheap Chinese piano's you see in the stores.
