cjk unified ideograph-2e8af

Han Character 2E8AF

𮢯 appears in the Chinese Buddhist term 鍵𮢯 for a small, shallow iron bowl. An early Tang handbook on monks’ belongings, compiled in 637, cites a Vinaya—a Buddhist monastic discipline text—describing it that way; a later Ming commentary says the bowl nests inside larger ones. The gloss belongs to the whole term, not to 𮢯 alone.

Why does 𮢯 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.
