Shield emoji SVG

A shield, as used to block swords in close combat. Colors and styles vary across platforms, but generally depicted as a Heater shield with a metal border and a simple pattern. Commonly used to represent various content concerning battle, defense, security, and protection. May be paired with (or fending off) ⚔️ Crossed Swords or 🗡️ Dagger. Not to be confused with 🔰 Japanese Symbol for Beginner. Apple and Samsung’s designs feature a red-and-white sawtooth pattern, as did an earlier Microsoft version. Google’s design is metallic, while Facebook and WhatsApp use a blue-and-white checker pattern. Microsoft and Twitter’s designs are bisected into two shades of blue.

Use this emoji in your website

You can add the shield emoji to your website in a few ways. The first way is by using the unicode character, the emoji itself. This has the advantage of rendering immediately and it doesn't require any additional network requests. However, emoji characters don't always scale well and they are inconsistent across platforms.

<p>Here is my emoji: 🛡️</p>

The second way is by using the emoji's HTML character reference, which has the same advantages and disadvantages of using the emoji itself.

<p>Here is my emoji: &#x1f6e1;</p>

The third way is by using an image to display the emoji. This works great if you want to display larger emojis, for example, to allow users to "react" to an article. We provide an Emoji API which you can use to display high-quality SVG or PNG emoji images on your website.
