    As pointed out, Kalimantan, is part of Indonesia, where I have been
    trading in stone and jewellery for many years. An Indo friend was the
    manager of the Amethyst mine and was able to collect a limited number
    of these over the years. Correct, nice gold work set from a top craftsman
    in Northern Thailand, who's goldsmithing work was sort after in Bangkok.
    These unpolished scepters always get a look from gem connoisseurs in my travels.
    Glad you enjoy them also.
    Cheers
