Heavy Sparkle Symbol ❈
Dingbat U+2748 is known as a sparkle, but it actually looks like a flower with four petals and straight little rays. The drawing is made up of black lines with no shadows, contrasting outline, or other details. A small accurate circle with a filled background is featured in the center.
The symbol U+2748 is used as a typographic decoration: it is useful for creating bullet-lists, emphasizing important headlines, and drawing attention to a meaningful paragraph. The icon works well with other floral symbols from early Unicode versions, such as the multi-colored flower.
The symbol "Heavy Sparkle" is part of the "Dingbats" Block's "Stars, asterisks, and snowflakes" Subblock and was approved as part of Unicode version 1.1 in 1993.
