What 𩌱 means
It is a historical form of 䩳, meaning soft leather.
《玉篇》, a Chinese character dictionary first compiled in 543, records 𩌱 as the same form as 䩳. The later 《廣韻》, a dictionary organized by rhyme and compiled in 1007–1008, glosses 䩳 as “soft leather”; 《集韻》 describes it as treated leather. 《玉篇》 was revised repeatedly, so 543 dates the dictionary’s beginning, not necessarily this exact entry.
Why does 𩌱 appear as a box?
The font or app may lack its glyph.
As of 2026, a box or blank can indicate that the font or app has no glyph for 𩌱. A font can render everyday Han characters and still lack this one; try one with broader CJK coverage.

1Why does 𩌱 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.
