Pearl Took was a Hobbit of the Shire.

History

Pearl was the eldest child of Thain Paladin Took II and Eglantine Banks.[1]

She was the caretaker of Lalia the Fat, the rotund, aged, and immensely annoying (to the Tooks) matriarch of the family. Each morning, Pearl was to push her wheelchair outside so Lalia could experience fresh air. One morning in S.R. 1402, Pearl was a little bit careless, and Lalia flew across the steps to her death.

Pearl was excluded from the ascension ceremony of Ferumbras, who had been waiting on Thainship for quite a while. She was, however, spotted with a necklace of pearls believed to be a Took family heirloom.[2]

Etymology

Pearl's name follows the Hobbit custom of high-class women being named after jewels.[3]
