A light-green variety of a common pear, shown with a stem and sometimes green leaf.

May be used in reference to the expression “pear-shaped,” referring either to a body shape with prominent hips and buttocks or to something that has gone wrong.

In 2023 this emoji was coopted by the company Pear and its customers to note within their social media profiles that they are not in a relationship and are open to meeting a new romantic partner.

Pear was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
