I dont think anything ever smithed will be purple. As I understand it, purple items are graded as "Unique", as in "You wont find another one."

Smithed items can repeatedly be churned out, so they arent unique. Ive also had several blue items that were the same level as some purple items, but the blue one had several advantages over the purple item.

I think its just a distinction of rareness, not necessarily the best, ala WoW.
