The first came from the Undying Lands, just like the staffs of all the Istari. This one broke on the narrow bridge of Khazad-Dum, when he faced the Balrog. The second also came from Aman, how and from who i do not know. I guess he got it from the Valar which sent him back.
And later on he broke the staff of Saruman, which also came from Aman.
