searching trade site: what does armour colour mean? tabula as an example.

I recently vaaled a tabula and got a +2 traps result.
so I went to trade site to estimate its value if anything.

I started looking around at items and not for the first time
there were several colour scheme variations for some of the
higher priced of the corrupted tabulas. few of the higher priced
ones listed valuable stats, +2 all, +%damage etc.

tabula is pure white, most of the time. but these ones appear
to be yellow, blue, pink and even tie dyed style combinations
of these colours.

what is that about?

(to find examples search poe trade for tabula, then set the price
in descending order. on the first few pages you will see coloured
tabulas)

heres a link:

there is no explanation in trades help page.

are you talking about foil color? those came from reliquary keys and are usually expensive just because of that. there is no advantage of using them, its just cosmetic

Can also go under Item Rarity in poe trade site and select Unique(foil) to just show those.

thanks guys.

I was around back when poe was open beta and do not remember
anything about legacy league. maybe I skipped it.

that entire wiki page and most of its related pages
are packed with information and content I was unaware of.
