woah. that is cool! not an oud, and i've never seen anything like it! maybe a custom build, one of a kind creation. part of the bottom neck seems like
it is related to sursringar, a long fretless lute of north india

So after looking a bit i think this instrument is a highly stylized Tibetan Dranyen.

That is an amazing instrument with a lot of personality. You are really lucky to be given such an instrument  Maybe it really is a Dranyen but a very different kind with a larger body relative to the neck. How does it sound?
