Dragon Diffusion is a leather handbag company that for the longest time was shrouded in mystery. The brand didn\u2019t have an Instagram account or even a website to browse until recently. The only way to procure one of these woven leather bags was through an authorized retailer like Matches Fashion<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I first discovered the brand through Jeanne Damas who has several of these woven leather handbags in brown and burgundy. I recently bought one of the chic Dragon Diffusion handbags and wanted to share my thoughts in case you\u2019re considering buying one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Dragon Diffusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dragon Diffusion is based in Brussels, Belgium, and has a workshop factory in India, where skilled leather artisans make each bag using traditional techniques. The operation is run by Craig Wright. Each bag can take as long as 2 days to complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Dragon Diffusion Woven Bag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I personally love my Dragon Diffusion handbag. My camel bag is made of woven leather and has two short handles and a wide-open top. It\u2019s great for my morning trips to the boulangerie<\/em> where I can hold several croissants, a sandwich, and my wallet<\/a> safely in the bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the bag is quite open, I don\u2019t use it when I\u2019m going to different places in Paris. I\u2019ve just heard too many stories about pickpockets so I don’t want to risk it by carrying an open handbag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it’s perfect<\/em> for running errands when you actually do need an open-top bag so that taller items can stick out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The leather does stretch slightly over time, so I try to keep things in the bag when it\u2019s not in use so it will hold its shape. If I don\u2019t, the lower corners will sag down due to the weight of the upper leather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
