pearl choker
Short gemstone strand
A pearl choker is a necklace of pearls worn snugly around the neck, sitting high against the throat rather than draping lower on the chest.
The style suggests elegance and formality, associated with classic or vintage fashion: She wore a pearl choker to the gala.
The term also appears in crude sexual slang referring to ejaculation on someone's neck.
