U+724E "牎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
牎
U+724E "牎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character historically used to denote a frame or sash for a window, often specifically referring to the wooden lattice or structural frame that holds a window pane. This character belongs to the Kangxi radical 87 for "claw" but is semantically tied to architectural elements, appearing in classical texts and traditional East Asian carpentry. While not common in modern simplified Chinese, it remains a recognized component in historical and literary contexts, representing a specific object that is also sometimes written with the variant character "牖" in related classical usage.
