VOTE: What keyboard to best compliment CCnG set?

Votes only please.

I'd like to know what you think looks best with a Cream Cheese and Chive (AKA CCnG or beige/green) set.

I'm leaning towards a Filco 'white' color (off-white) or a silver.

I want to pair it with something really nice.  I want something that looks top notch.  I will probably buy another custom.

I would agree that something off-white would be good.

I have a white KeyCool with mostly white keycaps, but purple/red modifiers atm - it looks much better than I anticipated.  I imagine that a case that matched the alpha keys would be preferable over one that matched the modifiers.  I could be wrong ;)

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I think the ducky YOTS will compliment it quite well
