U+2662 "♢" White Diamond Suit Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
♢
U+2662 "♢" White Diamond Suit is a typographic symbol representing the diamond suit found in playing cards, and it is one of the four suit characters in the Unicode standard alongside spades, hearts, and clubs. Its design typically features a rhombus or diamond shape with a hollow, unfilled interior, distinguishing it from the solid black diamond suit character (U+2666 ♦). This glyph is used in card game contexts, mathematical notation, or as a decorative element in text, where it often conveys concepts of value, gems, or suit-based categorization without the visual weight of the solid variant.
