A five-pointed star drawn with a thick outline and an empty interior, this symbol combines the familiar star shape with a hollow, open center. It is one of several outlined star variants in the Dingbats block, used decoratively or as a typographic element where a non-solid star is desired. The design allows it to stand out against dark backgrounds or to be filled with color in digital layouts and printed materials.
As a decorative symbol, it carries no fixed semantic weight but often represents excellence, rating, or highlighting in a more stylized or less emphatic way than a solid star. Its outlined form makes it suitable for bullet lists, separators, or ornamental use in text, and it appears in informal contexts such as social media posts or messaging to add visual interest without the full weight of an emoji star.
