Fine-cloth character

41894/42720

𪎥 is an old Chinese form of 緆, a term for fine hemp fabric. A classical ritual clothing text also uses 緆 for trim along a skirt’s lower edge, so context distinguishes cloth from the garment detail. The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary, records this form around 100 CE.

Text symbol

What 𪎥 means

It names a smooth, fine fabric. The Shuowen Jiezi records 𪎥 as an alternate form of 緆. It uses 麻 (“hemp”) where 緆 uses 糸 (“thread”).

Traditional explanations connect 緆 to hemp cloth treated until smooth. In ritual dress instructions, the same word can name the border at a skirt’s lower edge, so nearby words tell you whether a passage is about material or garment trim. For Unicode hex input, enter 2A3A5 as one code point; UTF-16, a common text-storage format, represents it as two linked units that still make one character.
