giraffe pattern

Brown on tan

A giraffe pattern is the distinctive arrangement of irregular brown patches separated by lighter lines, resembling the markings on a giraffe's coat.

The term applies to fabrics, prints, and designs that mimic this natural camouflage: The throw pillows featured a bold giraffe pattern.

Unlike leopard or zebra prints, giraffe pattern tends toward earthy tones and larger, more angular shapes.
