繻

1. Fine silk gauze: a luxury textile characterized by an open, transparent weave. 2. Silk remnants or scraps: fragments of fabric separated from the bolt or used for utilitarian purposes such as padding or binding.

Almost exclusively a noun identifying a specific object.

The translator must distinguish between two primary senses based on context: luxury textiles (likely in contexts of court dress, tributes, or high-status goods) versus textile remnants (likely in contexts of repair, poverty, or workshop production).

Simplified variant: U+26221.

The phonetic 芻 ("straw/grass") implies a structure similar to woven reeds.
