Actually, I guess it's more accurate to call it a Ceremonial Headdress, as it doesn't cover the whole face.
Can you use that for trimming shrubbery?

No, but if I were invited to one of their tribal ceremonies, I'd be careful to dance on the other side of the circle from this guy, especially if he started swinging his head!
The first time you catch a fleeting glance at this piece, you don't quite know if you were looking at a real fish, a futuristic spaceship design, or some other fanciful concoction. It's disconcerting to your perception of reality.
What in the world ????
