You can add the TextView into a Gtk2::ScrolledWindow and then set the
shadow type:

sub wrap_in_scrolls {
        my ($widget) = @_;

        my $scrolls = Gtk2::ScrolledWindow->new(undef, undef);
        $scrolls->set_policy('automatic', 'always');
        $scrolls->set_shadow_type('out');
        $scrolls->add($widget);

        return $scrolls;
}

You can see the different types of shadows available in the GTK
documentation page:
