What 𨖴 means

A Chinese character dictionary records this exact form in an inscription on a bronze bell from the late Spring and Autumn period of ancient Chinese history. The inscription says the bell was cast to honor ancestors and delight the family.
Why can UTF-16 split it?
UTF-16 stores it as a pair of code units.
Because U285B4 is above UFFFF, UTF-16 encodes this one character as two 16-bit units, called a surrogate pair. Software that counts or slices the units separately can split it; use character-aware text handling.

1Why does 𨖴 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.
