The front stands out thanks to the crocodile pattern embossed into the \u003cstrong\u003eApache leather\u003c\/strong\u003e, whilst the back has been deliberately kept smooth. This allows you to easily choose between a bold crocodile look and a more understated, minimalist style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dionne is perfect for a day at work, a lunch date, an afternoon’s shopping or a day when you’d like to carry a few more bits and bobs. The two long tubular handles allow you to carry the bag in your hand, on your arm or over your shoulder. With the included detachable and adjustable shoulder strap, you can also wear it crossbody.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo different looks in one handbag\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes the Spikes \u0026amp; Sparrow Dionne special is the contrast between the front and back. The embossed crocodile pattern on the front gives the bag a bold yet sophisticated look. The smooth back, on the other hand, has a more understated appearance and clearly showcases the natural character of the leather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou decide which side to show on the outside, making it easy to adapt the look to the occasion. The vertical leather panels and dirty silver metal details give both sides a stylish, smart finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dionne also pairs beautifully with the \u003cstrong\u003eSpikes \u0026amp; Sparrow Cherice clutch\u003c\/strong\u003e, which features the same combination of a crocodile-effect pattern, smooth leather and metal detailing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpacious bowling bag with tubular handles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dionne is one of two bowling bags in this range. The rounded top, wide base and two long handles give this model its distinctive shape. Compared to the more compact \u003cstrong\u003eSpikes \u0026amp; Sparrow Lisa\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Dionne offers more space for everyday essentials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tubular handles have a rounded finish and feel comfortable in the hand. A leather tube connector with a press stud fastening keeps both handles neatly together. This detail ensures extra comfort when carrying the bag and gives it a refined look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat fits in the Spikes \u0026amp; Sparrow Dionne?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dionne is a spacious handbag for all the bits and bobs you need throughout the day.

The tube connector keeps the handles neatly together whilst you’re carrying it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor extra freedom of movement, attach the long shoulder strap supplied. This strap is detachable and adjustable, so you can wear the bag over your shoulder or across your body at your preferred height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand-dyed black Apache leather\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dionne is first fully assembled and only then hand-coloured and waxed on the outside. This traditional finish creates subtle variations in colour depth, sheen and texture. It also adds extra nuance to the crocodile pattern and the stitching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApache leather is supple, thick, relatively light and soft. This makes the bag pleasant to the touch, and the material gradually moulds itself to the contents as it is used. At the same time, the leather is sturdy and suitable for intensive daily use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs each Dionne is finished by hand individually, every bag may vary slightly. These natural variations give each bag a unique look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlack leather that develops more and more character over time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Apache leather becomes increasingly supple with use. Small creases, subtle variations and signs of wear are part and parcel of the material and enhance its warm, vintage look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis allows the crocodile-effect pattern on the front to develop more depth, whilst the smooth back takes on an increasingly personalised finish.
