I needed the same, and as far as I can tell there is no FUNNEL, FILTER or REDUCE symbol in Unicode. You can use the character "X" with the Webdings Font, and it will give you a Speaker icon. Rotate it 90° and it'll be like a Funnel. Late here, but I like this ⫧ Found it by using shapecatcher.com which someone here suggested.
Filtering funnels, also known as Buchner and Hirsch funnels, include a cylinder separated from the funnel with a fritted glass disc or perforated plate. Fritted glass disc funnels are immediately ready for use, while perforated plates call for filter paper moistened with liquid to prevent initial leakage.
Symbol: , Name of the character: check mark, Unicode number for the sign: U+2713, the icon is included in the block: Dingbats. Unicode Character Table English Language
Unicode icons are essentially universal font characters. They come either in the shape of traditional language characters like those used in Latin (English), Chinese, Greek, Arabic, Hindi etc, but also simple two-dimensional monochromatic icons, like those used in mathematics or astrology.
Some of the most similar chars I've found so far:
∀, ∨, ∇, ▼, Y, Ⴤ, V, ᗊ, ⑂,

I'm not able to find anything similar to the funnel but here are some possible results:
Excel does have a funnel shape when filtering data (see the icon in the c column above "7" in the below table) but I'm not sure whether they use an image or character for that since window inspection tools can't work out that symbol
In some cases the scissors ✀ can be used to signify "cut out unnecessary parts"
