Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+9676 "" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "pottery" or "earthenware" and is associated with the act of making ceramics or molding clay. Beyond its literal meaning, it also carries rich cultural and historical significance, appearing in terms like "陶器" (táoqì, pottery) and "陶冶" (táoyě, to mold or cultivate). Philosophically, it is used in the name of the legendary sage-king Yao (陶唐氏), and it symbolizes transformation and refinement. The character is composed of the radical 阝 (a variant of 阜, meaning mound or hill) on the left, with the phonetic component 匋 (also suggesting pottery) on the right, reflecting its etymological roots in crafting vessels from earth.
