U+74AB "璫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+74AB "璫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that historically refers to a type of ear ornament, specifically a jade earring or pendant worn by ancient Chinese nobility, and it also appears in classical texts as a broader term for jewelry or adornments worn at the ears. This character is composed of the radical for "jade" (王) on the left, indicating its association with precious stones, and the phonetic component "當" on the right, which provides clues to its pronunciation (dāng in Mandarin). In modern usage, while it is not a common everyday character, it survives in literary and historical contexts, such as in the classical idiom "璫琚" referring to ornate earrings, and it occasionally appears in names or poetic descriptions of traditional attire.
