Right White Curly Bracket

⦄ closes a group in the white curly-bracket pair, opened by ⦃. Ordinary braces have a history: Cantor used them in 1878 to join sets without shared members; Zermelo's 1907 paper (published in 1908) used {a, b} for a two-member set. That history does not date ⦄ itself. As of 2026-10-08, font support can alter its shape or omit it; Unicode input or a character picker is usually needed.

What ⦄ means

⦄ is the right white curly bracket. Unicode classifies it as a closing bracket and files it in the Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-B block; this site shelves it under Maths.

Its appearance depends on the font and text styling.

How it is encoded

⦄ is a single code point, U+2984. In HTML that is ⦄, and in CSS \2984.

Don't confuse it with

}

Right Curly Bracket

} is the ordinary right curly brace; ⦄ is a separate mathematical delimiter. They share a general right-brace form but are distinct characters.

Questions people ask

Why does ⦄ show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
