What Is the Lower Right Semicircular Clockwise Arrow Entity?
Lower Right Semicircular Clockwise Arrow (⤾) is the Supplemental Arrows-B character at Unicode U+293E. It shows a curved clockwise arrow on the lower right — useful for rotate and redo-style cues.

Block Supplemental Arrows-B
Hex, decimal, CSS, and a typed character all produce the same glyph: ⤾. Prefer ⤾ when you want an explicit entity. There is no named HTML form.

Using HTML Code: ⤾
Using CSS Entity: ⤾
Rotate clockwise ⤾
How It Works
1. Hex:U+293E → ⤾ in HTML. The browser turns it into ⤾.
2. Decimal: same code point as 10558 → ⤾. Same result as hex.
3. Named: HTML5 does not define a named entity for this character — use hex or decimal instead.
4. CSS: use \293E in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that ⤾ after the paragraph text.
Pitfalls & Tips
Common mistakes when working with this arrow.
Look-alikes

Named
No &…; name
Do not invent a name. Use ⤾ or ⤾.

Add accessible text
Screen readers may not explain the glyph. Pair it with visible text like “Rotate clockwise” or an aria-label.
CSS vs HTML
Do not mix escapes
\293E belongs in CSS. ⤾ / ⤾ belong in HTML.
Fonts
Supplemental Arrows-B coverage
