Nepalese Lokta Chalk

Size

This paper is one of a collection of over 30 coloured handmade lokta papers with a smooth surface and a nice even distribution of fibres.

It is a wonderful ecological paper. Made by hand in the foothills of the Himalayas, it gives local rural skilled employment especially for women. The crop of lokta is harvested from the bark of the lokta bush each year, and its growth prevents soil erosion and is an important biological reservoir.

510x760mm has 4 deckle edges, 55-60gsm. (Sent rolled in a tube)

Smooth finish. Craie

Suitable for bookbinding (especially end papers) calligraphy and many types of crafting and card making.

As always I’m never disappointed with my purchases. This is just another favourite paper to work with, and it gives my work an added depth and texture that draws one in. Thank you again and I’ll see you soon to buy some more and more and more papers. Ahhh so much to choose from, always beautiful, always leaving me wanting for more. The shop that brings creativity to life. Thank you and be blessed.
