U+2FCB "⿋" Kangxi Radical Embroidery Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+2FCB "⿋" Kangxi Radical Embroidery is a graphic symbol from the Kangxi radicals block, representing the Chinese radical number 122, traditionally meaning "embroidery" or "needlework." This radical, originally derived from the ancient depiction of stitching or threaded fabric, is rarely used as a standalone character in modern Chinese but appears as a component in more complex logograms, often relating to textiles, weaving, or fine decorative work. Its encoding in Unicode preserves this historical element for use in scholarly texts, dictionary entries, and digital representations of classical Chinese script, helping maintain the structural integrity of the traditional character system.
