U+7508 "甈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7508 "甈" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character that primarily means a type of earthenware vessel or pot, often with a connotation of being broken or cracked, and it appears in classical texts such as the Shuowen Jiezi, where it is defined as a kind of broken tile or a vessel for holding offerings. This character is composed of the radical for "pottery" or "earthenware" (瓦) and a phonetic component derived from the character for "prison" or "arrest" (臬), reflecting its structural heritage in the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block. Its usage is largely historical and literary, and it is not commonly employed in modern writing, making it a specialized glyph for scholars of ancient Chinese philology or classical literature.
