Hope this will give the answer to your question.

Hello
I use GMMK v.1.0 full size hot swappable ISO body barebone keyboard.
- It comes only as black color when ISO-European layout. ( Would have wanted white/silver body but it is only in ANSI-U.S.A layout.)

I think the PBT keycaps ( from Varmilo Taiwan ) are too white and greys are too dark.

Hello
I'm very positive that keycaps of 1990s were more beige and egg white as were PC cases even when new and factory fresh.

Anyone know if colored Windows 95-symbol keycaps are old and used original keys or just a modern invention ?
- I own only original black/white Win95-symbol keys. Never seen colored ones ?

Yes the old 1990's keyboards were generally light beige or cream colored, have a few NOS that never were in the sun and still are close to original color.
Had a friend that had one late 90's (or maybe very early 2000's) KB that did have colored Windows keys but they were not common.....

Wow thanks for asking ! Just found a long lost Teac FD-55BR-578 black face that thought was long gone, was in with some old keyboards found when searching for colored keys 😀

I think bones are more of an off white Ivory color, So Yes the keys were white.

Leopold has some beige keyboards. I don't know if the caps are available separately.

Yes. I realized a week ago that my do-it-yourself mechanical keyboards do not look classic at all.

Here is a Teamwolf DIY X06S Void storm (Gold color version) hot swap socket barebone.
- Keycaps are white cherry profile manufacturer: Magicforce.

Now I need beige keycaps to replicate 1990s keyboard.
Majority of cherry PBT keycaps are all snow white.

Leopold keyboards seems rare now. Probably missed the train on these. Nobody sell them new.
Color is spot on, keys are PBT and have cherry profile.

LEOPOLD FC900.

I got my FC900R from mechanicalkeyboards.com. Also works with PS/2 using a passive adapter. The num/caps/scroll status leds are under the keys which I'm not a huge fan of. But otherwise it's great.

White keyboards did exist but most were a bit beige even when new

Here's picture from 1988 for example

Did factories of 1980s/1990s have any standard industrial color number for this light butter grey beige ?
- Similar like RAL colour standard catalog number # ?

Does any plastic product use this color today ?

Just need beige keycaps I might ask if factories could produce new special color keycaps.
- I use my own modified chinese switches 67g and hot swap boards to mount switches.
Previously I have bought full and ready keyboards just to harvest some keycaps that I like from those.

9009 keyset (cherry profile) arrived with Windows 95/98 keycaps.
This one has more beige greys than Varmilo CMYK keycaps (Varmilo has much darker grey keycaps).
Still not found those butter beige keycap sets or a beige donation keyboard from where to remove keycaps.

At least the grey keycaps look similar as old keyboards.
