Continue the Adventure with Handmade Lokta Paper
Nepali Field Book is one of the world's most unique notebooks with paper handmade from the Nepali Lokta bush. The paper comes from Lokta bushes which grow in the Himalayan mountains of Nepal. This tree-free source grows back quickly when cut.
The fibrous inner-bark is cooked into a thick mash and then spread by hand across boxed screens, forming the paper as it dries and hardens in the Himalayan sun. Often referred to as Nepali paper, Lokta paper is still used for official government documents in Nepal.
The paper has a unique texture with one side showing the intricate pattern from the screen used to create the paper, and the other side, the sun-kissed side has a more natural and varied texture.
Perfect for Any Adventure or Adventurer
The journal measures 3.5 x 5.5 inches and has 48 unlined/blank pages (96 front/back) making it a great notebook or journal to capture your adventures.
The slim size makes it easy to take anywhere. So take it with you on your adventures as a sketchbook or to the office as a unique way to take notes on a sustainable tree-free paper notebook.
