The heart symbol is commonly understood around the world to represent love, emotion and care.

The original piece created and shown here is using the classic red, most commonly representing romantic love. The heart is offset from the background to create a little depth, and uses out of line studs to help create a more authentic shape.

More recently the colour palette of this Emoji has been expanded to provide more flexibility in the meaning that is conveyed by this symbol:

• Orange indicates warmth, friendship and care.
• Yellow indicates joy, happiness and friendship.
• Green indicates nature, growth and harmony.
• Blue indicates loyalty, trust and tranquility.
• Purple indicates love, spirituality and luxury.
• Brown indicates stability, comfort and stillness.
• Black indicates sorrow, grief, and a dark sense of humour.
• White indicates purity, peace and innocence.
