Building a Classic MTB Wheelset: Ringle Hub & Mavic 117 SUP Ceramic Rim

Hello,
I'm planning to build a front wheel for my 26" MTB with components from 1992–1994. The hub is a Ringle, and the rim is a Mavic 117 32H SUP Ceramic.

Which spokes and nipples would you recommend? Ideally, I’d like black spokes and turquoise anodized nipples.
The rear will follow as soon as I have acquired a Ringle Rear hub :)
Thanks for your advice!
 
sorry to start with rather a bit of an concern instead of an recommendation, black spokes haven't been popular, maybe not even existing before End of the Nineties.
At least to me, there isn't any wheel set with black spokes which fit to a classic mountain bike.

The rest sounds great. I would assume the bubba hub is turquoise too?
