U+73CF "珏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+73CF "珏" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a classical Chinese character that primarily refers to a pair of jade pieces, often used in ancient times as a token of trust, a ceremonial object, or a symbol of dual harmony. Composed of two jade radicals combined, it visually represents two pieces of jade side by side, emphasizing concepts of pairing, matching, or joint authority. In historical texts, the character appears in contexts such as royal seals, diplomatic gifts, or ritual artifacts where jade signified preciousness and integrity. Today, it remains a part of written Chinese in specialized vocabulary and classical references, though it is less common in everyday modern usage.
