U+2F61 "⽡" Kangxi Radical Tile Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+2F61 "⽡" Kangxi Radical Tile is a graphical representation of Kangxi Radical 98, which signifies a tile, pottery, or earthenware, derived from the shape of roof tiles or clay vessels. This radical is used in Chinese character composition to indicate elements related to ceramics, construction, or pottery, appearing as a component in characters such as 瓦 (meaning tile or watt). As part of the Kangxi Radicals block in Unicode, it encodes stylized forms of the original 214 radicals from the Kangxi Dictionary, preserving a standardized reference for historical and linguistic studies, though it is distinct from the standard CJK character 瓦 (U+74E6) in both appearance and usage in modern text.
