All pianos built since the 1960 and 70's have been utilizing plastics for the keyboards. They don't fade in color like the older pianos did. Older pianos used wood for the thinner, black (sharp / flat) keys, and ivory (from elephant tusks, a no-no in today's society) for the wider white (natural note) keys. The older pianos thinner key's colors --because of the fading-- are often a washed-out black. As the wider white-ivory keys fade they often would turn yellowish and sometimes the ivory shows gray-black veins.
Additionally, most pianos have 88 keys, but particular pianos like the Bosendorfer Grands ($125,000+ in value) have 2-3 extra keys in the left-hand bass area, and to illustrate those extra keys they've been made in black even for the wider keys.
