NATURAL 60GSM

This natural lokta paper features subtle fiber inclusions, adding handmade beauty to whatever you create with it. Acid free, this paper provides a wonderful ?blank canvas? for art applications such as block printing and screen-printing, as well as for inkjet and laser printing. Lokta paper is an eco-friendly ?tree-free? paper, derived from the lokta bush, also called the daphne bush. Growing around 6-9,000 feet up in the Himalayan region of Nepal, this bush completely regenerates in about 4 years, after being cut down to about 6″ from the ground. Lokta papermaking provides a reliable revenue stream for the village artisans of Nepal’s rural and urban areas.
