Translucent rosy pink.  The beads look a little opalescent (lightly milky), but I think that is due to the color.

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

I haven't noticed any significant defects.  However, fire-polished beads always have some imperfect facets.  To read about the fire-polishing process, click here.

Comments:

The color is very rich, but for some reason it doesn't grab me.  Usually colors like this are accomplished via a synthetic coating, but the beads don't look coated to me, and the supplier's site didn't say they were coated.
