U+744A "瑊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

瑊

U+744A "瑊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that historically refers to a type of gemstone or fine jade, as its radical (王, meaning "jade" or "king") suggests, though in modern usage it is primarily encountered as a component in classical names or texts. Pronounced "jiān" in Mandarin, it appears in ancient literature, including in the "Shuōwén Jiězì" dictionary, where it is defined as a kind of superior jade with subtle markings. Due to its obscurity and lack of common contemporary use, the character often serves as a placeholder or technical example in digital font and encoding discussions rather than in everyday written communication.
