U+9EF0 "黰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
黰
U+9EF0 "黰" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that traditionally signifies a deep, dark black color, often associated with the glossy black of hair or the rich hue of fine lacquerware. It is composed of the radical for "black" (黑) combined with a phonetic component that suggests its pronunciation, and it appears in classical Chinese texts, particularly in poetic or descriptive contexts where it evokes a sense of intense, lustrous darkness. This character is seldom used in modern Mandarin but retains cultural and historical significance for scholars of ancient literature and calligraphy.
