It looks kind of like a cheap ebay type oud...the finish is quite heavy and the whole instrument just looks kind of touristy...No offense it intended,
and I have not heard the instrument. This is just a quick opinion based on its appearance. What kind of wood is it?

It almost looks like it might be a small, child's oud. The birds are cute.

i will post a sound clip very soon. and it isn't a child's oud. it is a full sized oud.
