If a Pearl is left uncustomized, they would have an ivory complexion and light cyan eyes.Ī default setting Pearl would wear a dress resembling Pink Diamond's. They can also be "customized" by owners in color and appearance, allowing them to have very noticeable differences from each other, unlike most other types of Gems who would normally wear near identical uniforms and have very similar, if not exact, colors. Physically, all Pearls appear to have a slender, androgynous form and a beak-like nose.
Pearls were made and repaired in The Reef, which also served as a boutique and trinket shop of sorts where their owners could obtain things for them to use and wear. White Pearl was seen (and feared) as an extension of White Diamond's will, making even the other Diamonds tread lightly in her presence. Yellow Pearl is able to get away with talking down to Gems higher in the caste system whenever she feels they would disturb Yellow Diamond, and clearly relishes the opportunity to do so. There are exceptions to these rules depending on who the Pearl belongs to, such as those of the Diamonds. It is physically impossible for a Pearl to disobey a direct order from their owner, and are normally dismissed with the phrase "that will be all" generally followed by the owner clapping her hands twice when they are no longer needed.

While Peridot describes them as "someone's shiny toy" and also mentions that there are hundreds of them on Homeworld, it is nevertheless implied that they're reserved only for noteworthy Gems of high social standing such as the Diamonds and aristocrats like Sapphires. Pearls are seen as status symbols of the Gems who own them. One of their most unique functions is their ability to hold and store inside their Gem a seemingly limitless number of their owner's belongings. While not primarily an entertainer like a Spinel, Pearls do nonetheless act as companions and provide simple luxuries such as singing, dancing, and projecting visual entertainment via holograms. They combine the duties of a variety of different service roles, such as a lady-in-waiting (tending to and making requests on behalf of her master), footman (opening doors and announcing their master's arrival), and secretary (carrying out clerical tasks). In the strictly regimented Homeworld hierarchical system, Pearls function as attendants to high-ranking Gems. Yellow and Blue Pearl announcing their Diamonds.
