Chapter 56: Objects Icons

1. What is the “Icons Objects” Page?

This page collects only the icons that represent everyday physical objects, tools, items, devices, and miscellaneous things that don’t fit neatly into other categories (such as office supplies, stationery, household objects, personal items, hardware, etc.).

The “Objects” category in Font Awesome 5 is basically a catch-all / miscellaneous bucket for icons that are:

• Not specifically tied to a theme like medical, music, food, hands, etc.
• Common physical things people use in daily life, work, or creative projects

These icons are extremely useful for:

• E-commerce product pages (pens, notebooks, scissors, tape)
• Office / stationery stores
• “What’s Included” lists (pens, notebooks, paper clips, stapler)
• Graphic design toolkits (ruler, pencil, eraser)
• “Stationery” or “Office Supplies” sections
• Blog illustrations for “back to school”, “study setup”, “desk setup”
• DIY / craft tutorials
• Minimal UI elements (bookmark, tag, tag, bookmark, scissors)

In Font Awesome 5 free, the Objects category is medium-sized and very useful (around 25–40 icons, mostly solid fas style, some regular far). Newer versions (FA6/7) split and expanded this category a lot (adding many more office, stationery, and miscellaneous items), but FA5 free already has a very solid set of everyday object icons that are still widely used in 2026.
