The short answer is no.

As a minor digression / workaround for fun:

DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/8rzgv/

<span class="share">&lt;</span> .share { font-weight: bold; position: relative; } .share:before { content: "."; font-size: 2.2em; position: absolute; bottom: -2.5px; left: -4px; } .share:after { content: ":"; font-size: 2em; position: absolute; bottom: -6px; right: -7px; } 

Answer 2

As far as I know, it does not exist, and even if it is, there is a very high probability (for example, 99%) that the browser will not display it correctly. Try using braille coding, in particular, it is very similar to your needs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E2%A0%AA

Answer 3

Since this common u0000-uFFFF does not exist in the Unicode u0000-uFFFF , you can use the iconic font instead and import this character. For example, if you look at http://fontello.com/ and look for “share,” you will find a similar character under the Entypo font.

(with Entypo sequence \uE800 ). These fonts are also presented in SVG format, and the size / color / label of characters can be controlled using CSS properties.
