U+73AE "玮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+73AE "玮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily functions as a given name component and conveys the meaning of a type of jade or rare and precious stone, often symbolizing value, rarity, or excellence. It is composed of the radical for jade or king (王) on the left side, which relates to gems or royalty, and the phonetic component 韦 on the right, which provides a clue to its pronunciation as "wěi" in Mandarin. This character appears in classical texts and modern usage, particularly in names for both people and places, where it carries connotations of refinement and treasured qualities.
