I haven't noticed any defects, but please note that fire-polished beads usually have many rough or imperfect facets.

Comments:

Hyacinth red is an orangey-red (I think).  As for the term "vitrail", I haven't a clue what that means, but I use it because my suppliers use it.  A vitrail coating is a metallic coating that is fired onto the bead.  In this case, the coating is a very dark blue which is almost black.  The picture isn't the best, unfortunately.
