Welcome aboard. Beautiful piece. "Guns And Rifles Of The World", and "Stone" attribute this style butt as being from Coorg (southern India). This makes sense, as that's not too far from Southeast Asia. The styles are similar. I believe these type guns, originated in Formosa, and gradually filtered throughout the region.
