This handmade paper is made from the bark of the Lokta shrub found in the Himalayas. It is harvested by the locals and turned into paper. It is certified Fair Trade by the World Trade Organisation, supporting the local communities that produce the paper through trade. All our papers are not treated with harmful chemicals like today's commercial papers which are treated with bleach.The paper is hand made in the rural, high altitude villages of Nepal and then carried down the Himalayas using the traditional paths and pack animals for transport. Lokta paper has a beautiful texture containing natural flecks from the bush and can vary slightly in thickness from page to page due to the unique handcrafting process.
