This item is five inches tall and two inches wide at the top. It is a glass figurine of a tree attached to a shallow silver dish that's just slightly over two inches in diameter.
The glass tree a lightly leafed tree with tiny yellow drop-shaped objects hanging from its branches. A representation of a partridge sits in the crown of the tree.
If detect magic is used on the item, it radiates summoning and protection magic.
Functions: Once per day, at Sunrise, a perfectly ripe pear appears on the silver plate. It can be cut into up to four sections, and each person who eats their part of the pear gains 1d4 bonus hit points above and beyond the character's normal maximum (or heals that number of points if already injured). The bonus points go away at Sundown.
When the item is placed where the person to whom the partridge in a pear tree was gifted is residing (either temporarily or permanently), it starts making loud squawking noises whenever someone that has harmful intents toward the character and his or her property (including theft). The noise is loud enough that any sleeping characters are awakened and anyone just outside the dwelling or anywhere within it will hear.
