U+7EA8 "纨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+7EA8 "纨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in traditional and modern East Asian writing, representing a type of fine, white silk fabric. Its composition combines the radical for silk, 纟, which indicates its association with textiles, with a phonetic component, 丸, that suggests its pronunciation as "wan" or "wan2" in Mandarin Chinese. The character appears in classical literature to denote luxurious or delicate silk, often symbolizing elegance or refined culture, and it is also found in terms like 纨绔子弟, which refers to a dandy or foppish young man from a wealthy family, thereby carrying connotations of both material refinement and social critique.
