That's it. It's pretty odd, though. For me, the colour displayed on the item's name should be predominant on both icon and equipped item.
On a side note, this happens aswell for other pattens like [item=8080320]Oak Pattens[/item] (i.e. [item=8080323]Oak Pattens (Black)[/item] are light brown, almost golden).
