Tenné

In heraldry, tenné (/ˈtɛni/; sometimes termed tenny or tawny) is a "stain", or non-standard tincture, of orange (in English blazonry), light brown (in French heraldry) or orange-tawny (in continental heraldry) colour.

Tenné, however, is not to be confused with Brunâtre ("brownish") of French and German blazons.

Tenné is used for the depiction of leather colour, while the much darker Brunâtre is used for the depiction of bear hide colour.
