U+6A2E "樮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+6A2E "樮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character primarily used in Japanese, where it is known as a kokuji, or a character invented in Japan. It is composed of the wood radical on the left and the phonetic element "炎" meaning flame, together suggesting the concept of charcoal or a substance that burns, such as a firewood or ember. This character is most famously found in the surname "樮" of Japanese actress Ema, and it appears in some place names and historical texts, but it is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese or Japanese writing, making it a highly specialized and obscure character.
