Lower Left Triangle Symbol
◺ is the LOWER LEFT TRIANGLE symbol, useful for arrows, markers, and lightweight geometric design accents.
U+25FA
◺ (LOWER LEFT TRIANGLE) is a geometric symbol from the Unicode block of geometric shapes. It’s small, simple, and works well as a visual marker. You can copy it directly or use its Unicode/HTML/CSS/JS escapes.
Lower Left Triangle Symbol Meaning
◺ is a simple geometric shape: a lower-left-oriented triangle. Visually, it’s often used as a direction hint (commonly suggesting a “move toward the lower left” cue) or as a minimal arrow-like marker in UI and documents. Because it’s purely geometric, it also appears as a decorative bullet, status indicator, or emphasis element in typography. In programming and design systems, it can serve as a lightweight icon where full SVGs or images aren’t necessary. Its most common meaning is a directional/marker cue rather than a specific cultural or mathematical symbol.
