U+27BB "➻" Heavy Teardrop-Shanked Rightwards Arrow Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+27BB "➻" Heavy Teardrop-Shanked Rightwards Arrow is a decorative typographic symbol that features a thick, bold arrowhead pointing to the right, which transitions into a stylized shaft ending in a teardrop or droplet shape rather than a standard line. This character is part of the Dingbats Unicode block, a collection of ornamental and non-alphabetic symbols often used in visual design, signage, or digital interfaces to add emphasis or directional flow. Unlike simple arrows, the heavy teardrop shank gives it a more organic, elegant appearance, making it suitable for calligraphic or artistic contexts rather than strict mathematical or directional use. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures consistent representation across different platforms and fonts, allowing designers and writers to incorporate this visually distinctive arrow into text without relying on images or external graphics.
