U+2B63 "⭣" Downwards Triangle-Headed Arrow Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⭣
U+2B63 "⭣" Downwards Triangle-Headed Arrow is a typographic symbol that features a bold, triangular arrowhead pointing directly downward, with a thick stem and a filled, solid head. It belongs to the Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows block, encoded in Unicode version 5.1 in 2008, and is distinct from simpler downward arrows due to its triangular, wedge-like head design. This character is often used in diagrams, maps, user interfaces, and signage to indicate a downward direction, descent, or a return to a lower level, and it is visually recognizable in contexts requiring clear directional cues without relying on more common arrow glyphs.
