Well...a 'pearl necklace' can be something rude...but from the rest of the sentences it doesn't seem to be a rude context. You'll either have to explain a bit further or take it at face value.

(and no, I'm not going to tell you what the rude meaning is for pearl necklace, sorry, but this is not an appropriate place for it. You'll have to google it, and remember, not 'pearly' but 'pearl')
