This keyboard is called the "Baron of Cyprus" and is featured in November '07's issue of ForbesLife Magazine. It is made completely of copper, has etched copper lettering on the keys and a black 'leather' faceplate. In Roman times, copper was mined almost exclusively on the Isle of Cyprus and that is the etymological root of our word "copper". "Cyprium" became "cuprum" became "copper".
I don't see myself making very many of these, as copper is a very difficult to work with and this is a very intricate design...

This particular keyboard was sold on Ebay.
