U+97DD "韝" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
韝
U+97DD "韝" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character composed of the radical 革 (leather) and the phonetic component 冓, traditionally used to refer to a leather armband or wrist guard worn by archers to protect the arm from the bowstring, as well as a general term for leather coverings or sheathings. In classical Chinese texts, it appears in the context of ancient archery equipment and sometimes in compound terms related to ceremonial or military attire, such as in the phrase "鞲韝" denoting a full set of arm protection. Although not common in modern vernacular, it retains historical and philological significance in the study of traditional Chinese weaponry, armor, and ritual objects.
