How is Animal Print Umbrellas different from Animal Handle Umbrellas?

Animal print refers to the canopy fabric pattern, leopard, zebra, giraffe spots, and similar prints, while Animal Handle refers to the handle being sculpted or shaped as an animal figure. A single umbrella could technically have both, but most fall clearly into one collection or the other, so Artisan Umbrellas keeps them separate to avoid mixing a print-only umbrella into a handle-shape collection.
