Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+330C "㌌" Square Karatto is a CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) compatibility ideograph that represents the word "carat" in a square or tate-chu-yoko format, typically used in Japanese typography for measuring the purity of gold or the weight of gemstones. It is derived from the English loanword "karatto" and is part of the "CJK Compatibility Ideographs" block, which was originally encoded for compatibility with older Japanese character sets like JIS X 0208. This character is distinct from standard CJK unified ideographs and is intended for use in contexts where a compact, single-cell representation of the term is needed, such as in price tags or measurements.
