Nepali Lokta Paper
The Lokta Paper (Nepali Kagaz) is a Nepali handmade paper made of the fibrous inner bark of the Lokta plant. The rough texture, strength, and durability make the paper quite unique. The wide range of use and its artistic values has made these traditional papers quite popular.
Named as “Daphne Bhoula” or “Daphne Papyracea” in scientific nomenclature, Lokta is an indigenous plant in Nepal. Lokta is an ecological wonder as it regenerates naturally and reaches maturity within 4 to 5 years after the first cutting. Hence, it has no adverse effect on forest ecology.
Lokta plant gets harvested like sugarcane by cutting its stem about 30 cm above the ground. However, no root gets damaged during the process. The regeneration factor makes the plant a great raw material source with a continuous supply. October is the start of the Lokta collection season.
Traditionally, Lokta paper sheets were mostly used in religious texts or official government documents. However, nowadays, they are rampantly used in Wallpapers, Restaurant Menus, Phone books, Wrapping paper, Paper Lamp and other Modern-day items. These papers can retain and preserve the potency of spices, medicines, and incense over a long period.
Lokta paper sheets are also used as fashion accessories. A new collection of clothes made from Lokta was recently introduced. You can find them in carrying bags, gift-boxes, calendars, lampshades, and file-folders. They are also used in Greeting cards, Photo frames, Art paper, Picture albums, Paper Jewelry, Postcards, Jewelry boxes, and others. Lokta paper origami is also quite popular.
