This ruby edition introduces a richer, more expressive tone to the medium Lokta bamboo lock notebooks. The deep red surface carries subtle floral forms that emerge gradually rather than all at once, giving the cover a sense of depth and quiet intensity.
The slim bamboo spine closure creates a clean, linear detail while keeping the notebook securely fastened. Its compact proportions make it easy to carry and intuitive to use, appealing to customers who want a notebook that feels personal rather than oversized.
Inside, 45 pages of handmade Lokta paper provide a naturally textured surface that suits writing, sketching, or short-form journaling. Each sheet reflects the slow, traditional papermaking process in Nepal, reinforcing the notebook’s handcrafted identity.

Lokta is a natural, eco-friendly paper made from the bark of the Daphne plant, which grows in the high-altitude forests of the Himalayan region, particularly in Nepal. The plant is notable for its ability to regenerate after harvesting, making it a sustainable resource that doesn’t require deforestation.
To make Lokta paper, the bark is stripped from the plant without damaging its roots. It's then soaked, pulped by hand, and spread into sheets using traditional wooden frames. These sheets are sun-dried and sometimes further embellished with petals, leaves, cotton fibres, or natural dyes. The process is labour-intensive but environmentally low-impact, often carried out in small village workshops as part of fairly traded, community-led production.
Lokta paper is valued for its strength, durability, and rich texture. Unlike mass-produced papers, it has a naturally fibrous, slightly irregular surface that gives it a distinctive handmade character. It’s resistant to tearing and humidity, making it popular for wrapping, bookbinding, and crafting.
