Han character 𪫥

998/4154

𪫥 is a Chinese written form of 淑, pronounced shū in Mandarin, meaning goodness or virtue. The early Chinese character dictionary Shuowen Jiezi (completed in 100 CE) glosses 淑 as “clear and deep”; the Song-period lexicon Guangyun records “good.” The form also appears on an inscribed bronze-bell set from Zaoshulin.

Text symbol

What 𪫥 means

It praises the bells’ sound quality.

In the bell inscription, 休𪫥孔煌 is read as a compliment on the bells’ tone: 淑 means good here, and 孔煌 describes it as very bright. The line is cast on a tuned group of bronze bells from tomb M169 at the Zaoshulin cemetery (dated c. 570 BCE); the long inscription says they were made for ceremonies honoring ancestors or for banquets.

Why does 𪫥 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.
