The paper is made from Lokta bushes which grow on the southern slopes of the Nepali Himalayas between 5,250 and 13,000 feet. When properly cut, the bushes can produce three to eight new, fast-growing shoots making Lokta paper one of the most sought after non-tree papers. The paper is not treated with bleach, like other papers, and is hand made in rural, high altitude villages of Nepal. 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. The paper is acid-free and is widely regarded as one of the world's finest hand-made papers. Water buffalo leather, vegetable tanned, provides a durable and unique look and feel for each journal.
