I was in Bangkok in 1973 and visited a gem shop. I didn't know much about lapidary or gems. I bought a few black star sapphire cabochons for a dollar each. I recently was looking on eBay for some Blue Biggs Jasper and bought some trim pieces from a seller in Bangkok. The reason an Oregon material ended up in Thailand is likely cheap labor to make cabs. I have no idea of what lapidary material if any is native to Thailand.
