Boxes and chests (箱篋; first character xi + jiang fanqie; the Zilin says: "Xiang (箱) is a bamboo receptacle." The Yunying says: "The name of an implement holding books or clothing." The Kaosheng says: "Belonging to the category of qie (chests)." Note: Shallow ones are called xiang; deep ones are called qie. Second character qian + jia fanqie; the Kaosheng says: "Qie (篋) means a casket (han, pronounced xian)." A character book says: "Belonging to the category of xiang." The Shuowen says: "Qie means a wicker chest." It takes the receptacle radical with qie phonetic; qie is sometimes written with the wood radical as 𣛄, both are acceptable.).
