Aesthetic conductive metal finishing

We are looking for a metal finishing solution that will provide a 'non metallic' surface color (e.g. black, blue, green, etc, preferably non shiny) and still maintain a very good electrical conductivity over long time (indoor environments). The choice of the underlying metal is open.

This is for a mass production of an high tech, cost sensitive product.

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Serious commercial contacts are welcome.
