Heavy Eight Teardrop-Spoked Propeller Asterisk is a dingbat — a decorative or functional printer's ornament originally designed for print typesetting, now widely used in checklists, ratings, decorative bullet points, and casual digital writing.
Unicode block: Dingbats (U+2700–U+27BF). Dingbats originate from the classic Zapf Dingbats font (1978) by typeface designer Hermann Zapf, later standardized into Unicode — covering checkmarks, scissors, stars, and decorative bullets used in print typesetting.
At Unicode code point U+274B (decimal 10059), Heavy Eight Teardrop-Spoked Propeller Asterisk is the 76th of 192 characters cataloged in this category on How To Type Any Symbol. In terms of typing methods, like most characters outside the 0–255 legacy codepage range, it has no dedicated Alt-code or single-key shortcut on Windows or Mac, so copy-paste is the standard, universal method for typing it. Regardless of platform, clicking the copy button above places the exact character on your clipboard, ready to paste into any application that accepts Unicode text.
