U+7EEB "绫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
绫
U+7EEB "绫" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of thin, patterned silk fabric, often translated as "damask" or "brocade." In traditional and modern Chinese usage, it denotes a luxurious textile with woven designs, historically associated with high-quality clothing and ceremonial garments. The character combines the silk radical (纟) on the left, indicating its connection to textiles, with the right component (夌) contributing the phonetic element for pronunciation. Beyond its literal meaning, "绫" appears in classical literature and compound words, such as "绫罗绸缎," a phrase encapsulating various fine silks, and it remains relevant in contemporary contexts like fashion and heritage textiles.
