Mathematical Right White Square Bracket ⟧
⟧ (U+27E7) 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: Mathematical Right White Square Bracket is part of the Symbols family (block: Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-A). 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 MATHEMATICAL RIGHT WHITE SQUARE BRACKET is a symbol in the Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-A block. Its code point is U+27E7. It is used as a bracket to end a group, parameter, or quoted text. In writing and code, it can mark the end of a list or the close of a set of items. The symbol is part of a set of brackets that helps separate parts of an expression. It can appear in math formulas, where it closes a group in an equation, or in programming, where it ends a parameter list or a string boundary. The form is a white square with a rightward edge, designed to stand out from other brackets. Historically, people created brackets to help readers see structure and order. The U+27E7 bracket serves a similar role in digital text. It is used when a simple, clear delimiter is needed that does not resemble common round or square brackets. In practice, the symbol supports clarity in mathematical notation and code. It helps avoid ambiguity when listing items or parameters.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+27E7
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.

How to type / insert
Fast copy: click the Copy button near the top of this page.
By codepoint: in many editors and IDEs, you can insert via the Unicode code U+27E7
or a built‑in character picker.
HTML: use the numeric entity ⟧
(hex) or ⟧
(decimal) when an HTML entity is needed.
Compatibility & troubleshooting
Font support: if the symbol does not render, the current font likely lacks this codepoint. Choose a font with broad Unicode coverage or allow a fallback font.
Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
