觵

U+89F5 "觵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese ideograph that historically refers to a type of ancient bronze drinking vessel, often used in ceremonial contexts and closely associated with the character "觥". This character appears in classical Chinese texts, such as the Book of Songs, where it symbolizes communal feasting, ritual toasting, and social hierarchy. Its structure combines the radical for "horn" or "angle" on the left, reflecting the vessel's shape, with a phonetic component on the right. In modern usage, it is considered a rare or historical character, primarily encountered in scholarly discussions of Chinese antiquity and paleography.
