漆

1. Only used in 漆漆.

(common “Jōyō” kanji)

• Go-on: しち (shichi)
• Kan-on: しつ (shitsu, Jōyō)
• Kun: うるし (urushi, 漆, Jōyō)
• Nanori: うる (uru)

漆 (urushi): a traditional red lacquerware serving set.

Appears to be derived from Old Japanese root uru, as in terms such as classical Japanese 潤う (urufu) → modern 潤う (uruou, “to be moist”), うるうる (uruuru, “wetly, moistly”, adverb). Probably from the way that a lacquered surface glistens as if wet.
