An anonymous hyper realistic version of a skull in ceramic, late Meiji to taisho period. It is 21 x 14 x 13 cm. I would guess that originally the snake head was coming out the eye socket, and has been broken off, repaired to the state seen in the photos. This type of object was popular in the later 19th to early 20th centuries.
