In order to better distinguish it from ordinary waxy species, this waxy species of jadeite with good water head is also called ice seed jadeite. The water content and meat quality of ice-seed waxy jadeite are between ice and wax, which is the transition between them, so it is called ice-wax species. Generally speaking, its transparency is better than that of waxy seeds, but it is a little worse than that of ice seeds.

Waxy jadeite belongs to middle and high grade jadeite. If it is full of green, with a strong sense of transparency and luster, its price keeps pace with the ice species.
