round or oval covered-baskets with short legs
篚 refers to a specific type of traditional container: a round or oval basket with a lid and short legs, used for carrying or presenting items.
篚 combines 竹 (bamboo) with 匪, which likely contributes the sound and the idea of a container. The character describes a bamboo basket with a lid and legs.
The bamboo top 竹 sits over 匪, which looks like a lidded box on short legs. Picture a round bamboo basket with a cover and tiny feet.
For ヒ, imagine a basket so fine it makes you say 'hee!' in admiration: hee -> ヒ, as you lift the lid of the elegant bamboo container.
