As shown above.
 

Explanation

The above sample code is based on How to display a 2D array in GtkTreeView - Part 5 - get user selection?.

What's new here:

  1. Set up the GtkCellRendererPixbuf.
  2. Load the red ball for $qty<10. Load the green ball for $qty≥10. Then display the image with $cell->set_property('pixbuf', $pixbuf)
