About the heavy eight teardrop-spoked propeller asterisk symbol

This heavy, eight-pointed asterisk with teardrop-shaped spokes is a decorative symbol found within the Dingbats block of Unicode. It is occasionally used in ornamental typography, such as in borders, dividers, or as a fleuron to mark a section break, where its bold, stylized form adds visual weight. Its design resembles a propeller-like star, but it remains a purely graphic character rather than a functional punctuation mark or mathematical operator.
