Hairbinding Cloth Character

5028/7473

In Chinese discussions of mourning rites, 𮉓 names a cloth used to bind or wrap the hair. It appears in the phrase 笄𮉓, paired with 笄, a hairpin; scholars disagree whether the line describes hair ornaments or imitates a cry of grief. Related ritual passages use 纚 for a hairbinding cloth, which supports this reading without proving the two characters interchangeable everywhere.

Why does 𮉓 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.
