幋

U+5E4B "幋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that historically denotes a type of ornamental headdress or hairpin, often associated with ancient ceremonial attire. It is composed of the radical "巾" (turban or cloth) and a phonetic component, reflecting its connection to head coverings or cloth items used in traditional dress. This character is rarely used in modern Chinese but appears in classical texts and historical calligraphy, where it symbolizes adornment or regalia. Its encoding in Unicode enables precise representation in digital form for scholarly and linguistic purposes, preserving the nuanced vocabulary of Classical Chinese.
