postal horn 📯 - OzVoca Emoji Details
postal horn
This is an emoji of the horn that old-time postmen used to blow to announce their arrival. It's used to deliver important news.
This emoji can be used to announce something with a "Ta-da!" or to share good news, much like an old herald blowing a horn to deliver a royal message.
This is a postal horn, used in 18th-19th century Europe to announce the arrival of a mail coach. For this reason, it is still used today as the official symbol for the postal services of several European countries.
You can easily spot this shape in the logos of the German or Austrian postal services. In the digital world, it's used like a fanfare to announce a victory, a major achievement, or an important notice. While the 📣 (megaphone) emoji represents a general shout, the 📯 conveys a more classic and stately announcement.
