The pear was dedicated by Ancient Greeks to goddess Hera who represented women, especially wives and fidelity in marriage.  Perhaps because of the feminine shape of the fruit and the sweet flavor they have also been associated with early fertility cults.

In ancient China, people believed that pears represented immortality and prosperity because pear trees live for along time.  In Korea, the pear symbolizes grace and nobility.  The pear tree is a symbol of comfort.  In many Korean legends, the pear gives women fertility.
