U+749E "璞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+749E "璞" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "unpolished jade" or "uncut gem," symbolizing something that is raw, natural, and full of potential yet to be refined. In classical Chinese philosophy and literature, it often carries a metaphorical sense, representing inherent virtue, simplicity, or a person of great innate talent who has not yet been shaped by education or society. The character is composed of the radical for jade or gemstone combined with a phonetic component, and it appears in historical texts and idioms, such as the phrase "返璞归真," which advocates returning to a state of natural simplicity.
