The story of 盧

vessel

盧 is composed of the variant of 膚(skin) and 皿(dish, vessel), which depicts tiger meat on a fish, its original meaning is rice vessel. To avoid the solidification of oil, when eating tiger meat, we need fire to heat the vessel, so 盧 also has the meaning of stove, but such meaning has been replaced by 爐, now 盧 is mostly used for surname.
