𣟬

cjk unified ideograph-237ec

Rare variant of 欄

14317/42720

𣟬 is a rare variant of 欄 (simplified 栏), a character for rails and animal pens; the Chinese character dictionary Shuowen glosses 欄 as “wooden rail.” This character also labels columns and fields. In Mandarin, 欄 is read lán; Japanese reads it ran in compounds and tesuri for “handrail”; Korean uses it in Hanja, the Chinese-character script, for rails and pens. 欄 combines 木 (“wood”) with 闌 for its sound.

Why does 𣟬 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
