U+6958 "楘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

楘

U+6958 "楘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character with a rare and specific meaning, typically referring to a type of decorative band or binding used on ancient chariot trappings, such as those described in classical texts like the Shijing. This ideograph is composed of the wood radical on the left and the phonetic component of "mu" on the right, connecting its visual form to its historic use in describing wood or leather structures. While seldom used in modern Chinese, it remains a point of interest in epigraphy and historical linguistics for its preservation of archaic vocabulary.
