I'm assuming that those plates are violet and purple (left to right.) It appears
as if they dumped some purple into the violet vat and then didn't stir it
enough.(1) 'Tis a shame, if that's the direction things are heading; it would
have been nice to have more pieces in either of those colours :-( Perhaps
they're betting that collectors of rarities will outweigh dissatisfied
customers.
