Unicode characters for «email», «save», «print»

I want to make a fallback for my icon font. For example, for my beautiful icon font check mark I use Unicode check mark equivalent:

.icon-checkmark {
    &:before {
        content: "\2713"; /* Unicode Character 'CHECK MARK' (U+2713) */
    }
}

My icon font has character with code "\2713" also. If my icon font fails to load, user will see Unicode check mark; if icon font loads successfully, user will see icon font's beautiful check mark.

I'm searching for Unicode character equivalents for «email», «save» and «print» entities. Are there any or similar in Unicode tables? I have searched on http://www.fileformat.info/ but with no luck.

(I have found only an «email» character — http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/1f4e7/browsertest.htm, but it does not work in Chrome 28 (it works in all other browsers however :).

Here's some ideas. I have not tested them on any browsers except Firefox on Linux.

Edit: 💾 \U0001f4be could be used for saving since Unicode 6.x
