Small Orange Diamond 🔸

🔸 (U+1F538) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.

What it is and where it’s used: Small Orange Diamond is part of the Symbols family (block: Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.

History & usage: The character depicts SMALL ORANGE DIAMOND. It can appear in messages to signal a small highlight or decoration, adding a friendly or festive mood in casual chats. It may serve as a subtle marker or icon in user interfaces to draw attention without words. In content, it helps emphasize a point or decorate a list item where color and shape matter. Use in UI or text should be deliberate to avoid ambiguity in formal content.

Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F538 in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.

Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
