Ankh black outline icon
Egyptian ankh cross with teardrop loop, flared crossbar and stem
About the Ankh black outline icon
The ankh is drawn with a narrow teardrop loop that comes to a point where it meets a bowtie-shaped crossbar, below which a slightly flaring stem drops to a flat base. It carries the ancient Egyptian meaning of life, eternity and divine protection. Works on museum and history sites, mythology games, tattoo and jewelry catalogs, spiritual or esoteric apps, and lesson slides on ancient Egypt.
The pointed loop and angled crossbar give this version a hand-carved feel rather than the usual rounded oval, which helps it stand apart in a symbol grid. It pairs with pyramid, scarab, Eye of Horus and pharaoh icons. At small sizes the inner loop line closes up, so use 24px or more.
This is the black outline version of the ankh icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
