Black Curved Leftwards And Downwards Arrow Symbol
⮮ is a black curved arrow pointing left and down, used to indicate back or a downward-left direction.
U+2BAE
The ⮮ symbol is a directional arrow: it curves leftwards and points downwards. It’s commonly used in UI hints, text labels, and icons where a “back/return” or “down-left” motion is helpful. You can copy it directly or use its HTML and code escapes.
Black Curved Leftwards And Downwards Arrow Symbol Meaning
⮮ (Unicode U+2BAE) is the “black curved leftwards and downwards arrow.” Visually, it combines a leftward and downward curve, making it useful for messages that imply returning, stepping back, or moving down while shifting left. In interfaces, it can represent navigation behavior like “back with a descent,” such as exiting a submenu or moving to a previous level that also goes “down.” In writing, it works as a compact visual cue for direction or process flow—especially when you want an arrow style that’s distinct from straight arrows. Use it as a lightweight symbol in buttons, diagrams, and annotations.
Common uses
- •Navigation labels to suggest returning to a previous step with a downward-left movement
- •UI/help text for “back” actions in menus or multi-level flows
- •Callouts in diagrams or workflows that move from a current item to a lower, prior option
- •Status or instruction text in apps (e.g., “go back and down-left” for a specific panel)
- •Icon-like punctuation in design mockups where arrows add clarity without extra words
