Traditional Nepali Craftsmanship
Skilled artisans in Nepal hand-press every sheet using traditional techniques passed down through generations. They work with local labor and raw materials, and they never use electricity during production. Because of this slow, manual process, each acid-free sheet stays free of tree destruction and stays fully biodegradable.
About Lokta Paper
Lokta paper comes from the fibrous bark of the Daphne cannabina shrub, known locally as Lokta, which grows at high altitude in the Himalayas. Artisans boil and beat the bark with wooden mallets to form a pulp, then pour it into wooden frames and sun-dry it. The resulting sheet dyes, stencils, and prints beautifully, which is why Nepali craftspeople have relied on it for centuries.
