2,000 Years of Craftsmanship
Each journal is made using traditional methods from the bark of Daphne cannabina, a resilient shrub that thrives in the high mountains of Nepal. This papermaking art form has been preserved for over 2,000 years, giving you a product that’s both culturally significant and environmentally sustainable. Lokta paper is naturally resistant to insects, which is part of why Nepali crafting families have relied on it for generations for picture framing, lampshades and bookmaking alike.
A Distinctive Writing Surface
Because the paper is handmade rather than machine-pressed, each page carries a subtly textured surface with visible natural fibers, giving your handwriting or sketches a warmer, more tactile backdrop than standard notebook paper. Many writers also find that the slightly toothy texture works especially well with fountain pens, pencils and light watercolor washes.
