U+93A3 "鎣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

鎣

U+93A3 "鎣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese ideograph that historically refers to a type of polished or burnished metal, often associated with the process of smoothing or brightening a metal surface through friction, and it also carries the meaning of a metal implement used for cleaning or polishing. In modern usage, this character is notably rare and primarily appears in classical Chinese texts or specialized historical contexts, where it may also be read with a different pronunciation in certain compound words, such as in the name of the ancient "鎣鎏" technique for gilding metal. Its composition combines the radical for metal or gold (金) with the phonetic component "熒" (yíng), which contributes the sound and a connotation of brightness or shimmering, further emphasizing the character's visual and functional link to lustrous metals.
