Traditional Lokta Paper From Nepal

Lokta paper is made from the bark of the wild-growing Daphne bush, a plant that naturally regenerates in the Himalayan forests. Rather than relying on conventional machine-made paper, traditional Lokta papermaking is a hands-on process, with the bark harvested, prepared, made into paper and sun-dried by hand.

The result is beautifully tactile paper with natural texture and character. Small variations in the surface and appearance are part of what makes handmade Lokta paper special — each notebook feels like a real piece of traditional craft rather than a mass-produced stationery item.

A Notebook With A Story Behind It

These notebooks are made through a fair trade supply chain, helping support skilled artisans while keeping traditional Nepalese papermaking practices alive. For Old Ways Living, that connection between useful everyday objects, traditional craftsmanship and a more considered way of living is what makes them particularly appealing.

Available across Mini, Medium and Large formats, with approximately 40–45 leaves of handmade paper, the collection offers something for everything from pocket notes and lists to longer journaling, creative writing and sketching. Selected designs also include a bookmark, with some featuring a QR code offering a glimpse into the Himalayan workshop behind the craft.

A thoughtful alternative to ordinary stationery, these Lokta paper notebooks bring together natural materials, traditional skills and the simple pleasure of writing by hand.
