The Outlined White Star (⚝) is a typographic symbol depicting a hollow, five-pointed star with a distinct border. Introduced in Unicode 4.0, it is frequently used as a decorative bullet point, an unfilled rating indicator, or an aesthetic element in text-based designs. Because it remains empty inside, it provides a minimalist look popular in digital typography and social media formatting.
