Ebonite is hard rubber, whereas Resonite, Reso-tone, ABS, etc. are plastic resins, Bakelite and phenol resin are the same thing, just as grenadilla, mpingo and African blackwood are all dalbergia melanoxylon.

The gold plating is applied very thinly to these springs and flakes off like glitter once rust sets into the steel. I'm 100% certain it's gold plate as it has that look about it and doesn't look like titanium or brass or the gold colour some aluminium products are coated with.
