Perla is made of a fluffy beige material. The face is light brown in colour. The face has a naive and childlike expression; the eyes are far apart, the snout is red and the mouth is large, like a muppet’s. The face has an oval shape and the two long ears stick out. The body is small, and the arms and legs are long and thin. Perla wears a light yellow dress. The materials are mostly synthetic.
Perla is a muppet with a large mouth. The hand of the performer is inserted into the puppet’s body in order to move / control it.
In addition, Perla has two rods, one attached to each of the puppet’s forelegs/arms. A second performer is required if the puppet’s legs and mouth are to move at the same time. More usually, the one performer controlling the head/mouth alternates between controlling the right or left foreleg. Perla’s back legs hang freely.
