I found this in an antique/junk shop in Maine: Looks like the top of a Keris sheath. What can you tell me about it's age, whether it was made for tourists, etc?

I'm going with Indonesia, not the Subcontinent. Sure, produced for commercial sale, but it was still carved by someone with tremendous skill. It's beautiful!
