U+9344 "鍄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9344 "鍄" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that refers to a specific type of metal implement or tool, often interpreted as a kind of bell or rattle used in ancient contexts. This ideograph is composed of the radical for metal (金) and a phonetic component, and it appears in classical Chinese texts where it might denote a metallic percussion instrument or a fitting on a vehicle or harness. While rare in modern usage, it remains part of the Unicode standard to preserve historical and linguistic heritage across East Asian scripts.
