U+740B "琋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+740B "琋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character included in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, which encompasses a vast set of ideographic characters shared across these languages. Its composition combines the radical "王" (jade or king) on the left and the phonetic component "希" (xi) on the right. While its exact modern usage is obscure and it does not appear in standard dictionaries or common vocabulary, historical texts suggest it may have once referred to a type of jade or a lustrous, fine stone, aligning with the jade radical's typical association with precious gems and ornaments.
