Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+2661 "♡" White Heart Suit is a typographic symbol representing an outlined or hollow heart shape, distinct from the solid black heart suit U+2665, and is often used in digital communication and design to convey affection, warmth, or gentleness with a softer, more delicate aesthetic than its filled counterpart. It originates from the standard playing card symbol set, where it corresponds to the heart suit, but in modern contexts it is frequently employed in text messages, social media, and decorative typography as an emotive icon or bullet point marker. Its white or open form can also suggest ideas of purity, peace, or a minimalist style, making it a versatile character in both formal and informal written exchanges.
