1, consumers who have some contact with jadeite will certainly be familiar with the concept of "seed head" in jadeite jargon. If described in plain language, "seed head" actually refers to the texture and transparency of jade, which complement each other. Good texture makes transparency better, and poor texture makes transparency worse, and the opposite will not happen. So experts will sum up and call it the seed head. Combining color on the basis of seed head, which is the most important value point of jadeite, if a piece of jadeite is said to be colored, it should be said that it is of extraordinary quality.

2. How can consumers who don't know much about jade quickly master or identify the "seed head"? In fact, it is not difficult. Although each expert has his own set of views and understanding of species, the basic changes are the same, and the understanding between experts will not differ much, so there will be a basic understanding. According to the understanding of "species", Xulin Jewelry divides the seed heads into five main grades, which is convenient and quick to use.

3. Among the five grades, the best seed is glass, also called glass ground. As the name implies, the texture is as crystal clear as glass, the structure is delicate and the transparency is excellent. You can't see the graininess of jade, which is the best texture and transparency. Secondly, ice species, also known as ice fields, are as transparent as ice, but not as clear and transparent as glass species. As hazy and transparent as ice, sub-transparent and extremely delicate, it is difficult to see the grainy texture.

4. In addition to ice seeds and glass seeds, the seed head actually belongs to the scope of bean seeds, that is, everyone can feel the graininess of the structure. As the saying goes, ten jade nine beans are like this. First of all, ordinary beans are easier to understand. Beans can feel obvious structural graininess. Like beans, the transparency is between translucent and slightly transparent. It is more delicate than bean seeds, and it feels like glutinous rice paste. We call it waxy seed, which can be said to be an advanced evolutionary version of bean seed, and it is generally translucent. Many customers and friends often ask how to distinguish between bean seeds and waxy seeds. It's actually quite simple. If the texture of jadeite is not as good as ice seed, but finer than ordinary bean seed, it is waxy seed, which is also a common seed head type of commercial jadeite. At the end of the list are the types of horse teeth, which are not only obvious in graininess, but also rough. Jade, which belongs to the lowest level, is generally rare in the commercial market and few people will like it.
