Description

Notebook A5 100 pages made from lokta paper. From centuries, the lokta paper is traditionally made from the bark of a Nepalese shrub, daphne cannabina, also called Lokta. Strips cut into the bark are softened for hours in the water, and brought to a boil. The robustness and flexibility of the paper are due to the fact that the fibres beaten with a wooden mallet on a flat stone for hours. The "paste" is then uniformly distributed on the sieve, forming a sheet that will dry in the sun on the hills. Some of the sheets obtained are then coloured with natural pigments.

Warning

All our objects are handmade. Each piece is unique and it is impossible to reproduce exactly the same. Slight differences may therefore appear in the shapes, proportions, colors and / or materials used in our descriptions and specification sheets.

The silver (metal) used in Nepal is always composed of an amalgam and is most often plated on metal parts. Most of the stores that sell 925 sterling silver products from Nepal are fraudulent!

Likewise, some stones considered semi-precious from Nepal or India are actually stones reconstituted from powder of semi-precious stones, such as turquoise or coral. Nevertheless, they seem to retain the properties of the original stones. In the case where reconstituted stones are used, we always specify it in the specifcation sheeet.
