This Mini Tiles Lokta notebook plays with pattern rather than florals, using a grid of individually decorated paper panels to create a rhythmic, almost mosaic-like cover. Set against a teal background, each tile introduces its own colour and motif, giving the notebook a playful but well-balanced visual identity.
Handmade in Nepal from traditional Lokta paper, the notebook retains the tactile quality and natural variation that define this papermaking tradition. The wooden button fastening and fabric bookmark bring order to the busy surface, keeping the overall feel practical and well finished.
Inside, 45 handmade pages offer plenty of room for writing, sketching, or planning, with the larger format making it suitable for both creative and everyday use. The design encourages browsing and touch, making it an easy attention-grabber in-store.

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.
