It appears in a Northern Song qin maker's name
One transcription of Chen Yang's music treatise Yueshu (Book of Music), written in China's Northern Song dynasty, gives a qin maker from the historical Wu region of China the name 沈𨯈. A qin is a seven-string Chinese zither; the passage groups him with another Wu-region maker, Zhang Yue, and describes their instruments as clear and bright.
A blank box points to font coverage
If 𨯈 appears as an empty box, the app's font may not include its glyph; the text can still contain the exact character. Use a font that draws it rather than substituting another Han character that only looks similar.
