Gem Pedestals

"Gem Pedestals" are magical objects that appear in both Rose's Secret Armory and the Prime Kindergarten Control Room.

Appearance
Gem pedestals appear in the shape of a hand with the insignia of the owner that will activate on contact with the designated user. Rose's pedestal has her respective symbol, similar to the one on her flag, and the pedestal in the Kindergarten control room has a yellow diamond symbol on it.

"Lion 2: The Movie"
In "Lion 2: The Movie" this type of object makes its debut when Lion takes Steven and Connie to Rose's Secret Armory. The pedestal is activated by placing Steven's left hand onto it and poking and pulling certain parts of his body. The object can give the user access to Rose's artillery such as a wide variety of swords, the Axes of Ages, the Armor of the Fallen, the Quartizine Trio, the Heretic's Anguish, and a Robot Shooty Thing as part of a training simulator. There is also a giant penny for an unknown reason.

"Marble Madness"
This type of object once again appears in "Marble Madness" inside the Prime Kindergarten Control Room. Using a Hand Robonoid, Peridot was able to active the power in the control room. The pedestal gives the user access to two large hands, a projection (if not activating it directly), as well as the data stored inside the facility. Due to the Crystal Gems destroying the power source, it was rendered useless.

"Rose's Scabbard"
The pedestal in the armory appears again in "Rose's Scabbard". As the confidant of Rose Quartz, Pearl was aware of the contents inside of the armory and how to access it, but since Steven already used it before, he denied her help.

"When It Rains"
The pedestal inside the Prime Kindergarten Control Room makes another appearance in "When It Rains" to access Peridot's logs that were lost in "Catch and Release" with the disposal of her Limb Enhancers. After restoring power through alternative means, it is shown the pedestal's height can change to fit the user's preference. Through the use of the pedestal, Peridot shows the data of the Cluster Gems, as well as that of the Cluster itself, to Steven.
