Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: ☙ inserts code point U+2619 → ☙.

2. Decimal: same code point as 9753 → ☙. Same visual as hex.

3. CSS: use \2619 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends ☙.

4. Typed: paste ☙ in a UTF-8 document, or use it as a decorative list flourish.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with Reverse Rotated Floral Heart Bullet.

Name

No named entity

There is no HTML5 named entity for U+2619. Use ☙ or ☙. Do not invent &rrotflorin;.

❧

Not the rotated Dingbats bullet

U+2767 (❧) is rotated floral heart bullet — related look, different code point and block.

❦

Not upright floral heart

U+2766 (❦) is the upright floral heart ornament, not this reversed bullet.

Lists

Decoration vs structure

For real lists, prefer <ul>/<li>. Use ☙ as visual flourish, not as the only list structure.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\2619 belongs in CSS strings. ☙ / ☙ belong in HTML.

Add accessible text

Screen readers may not announce ☙ clearly. Prefer nearby prose when the ornament carries meaning.

Semicolon

End references

Always finish entities with ; — write ☙, not &#x2619.
