India - Pradesh Coral, Turquoise and Silver collar - Photos

Hi Kathleen. I have a question about these necklaces. I have seen several examples of these (recent) and I purchased one for myself, personally. All of them that I see are slightly different, but they all have large chunks of stone and/or coral with small silver beads, the half round elements and the long silver pendants around the bottom. Is the origin of this style truly Kulu Manali? I have seen it attributed to a very wide range of places, including Morocco, Tibet and more. I have seen what I assume are reproductions listed from so many different places, that I am hesitant to believe any of them! Thanks for any information.
