Lacquer (variant character)

15906/42720

𣸡 is a recorded variant of 漆, the character for lacquer-tree sap and the durable coating made from it. 漆 also has an ancient river-name sense; its written history links the older graph 桼, which depicts tree sap, to a form with the water component 氵.

Text symbol

What 𣸡 means

It is recorded as another written form of 漆.

Within 漆’s history, the older graph 桼 depicted sap flowing down a tree. Adding 氵, the water component, formed 漆; bronze inscriptions also use that graph as a place name.

Dictionary meanings of 漆 include a river name, lacquer-tree sap, the coating made from that sap, and black. Because 𣸡 is equated with 漆, that is the reading range attached to this form.

Why does 𣸡 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.
