HANDMADE PAPER: Tree-free, sustainable paper handmade from the Lokta bush which grows in the Himalayan Mountains of Nepal. Cuttings are cooked to a mashy pulp and spread by hand over boxed screens and set to dry in the Himalayan sunshine, making a tough, acid-free paper with a beautiful texture.
NATURE'S COLORS: Vegetable dyes made from black walnut husks create the beautiful cover and a mix of natural indigo and pomegranate create the green at the binding.
A HIMALAYAN TRAVELER: Lokta paper makes its way from the Nepali mountain villages to Kathmandu where it is sewn in the journal. Pages contain natural flecks and texture unique to the art of hand-crafted Lokta paper. Make it your own, and continue the journey.
HAND-CRAFTED IN NEPAL: Thank you for supporting Nepalese artisans and preserving a 1,000-year-old Nepalese tradition of paper making by hand.
