U+2B51 "⭑" Black Small Star is a typographic symbol that represents a compact, filled five-pointed star, often used in digital text for decorative, rating, or highlighting purposes. It belongs to the Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows block and is visually distinct from the larger, more common black star (U+2605) due to its smaller size and slightly different shape. This character can be employed in lists, bullet alternatives, or as a simple graphic element in plain text environments where images are not supported, and it is recognized across modern fonts and operating systems that include Unicode support.
