Handmade Marbled Lokta Pocket Notebook 12x8cm 80 Pages

Flecks of turquoise, red and golden colour drift through the soft, fibrous cover like confetti caught in handmade paper. This handmade Lokta paper notebook is a small place for private lists, half-formed thoughts, travel notes and the sort of lines you want to keep close.

Marbled cover, made to be touched

• The cover has a warm natural base, scattered with mixed coloured cotton fibres for a lively marbled look.
• A visible cord and button-style fastening gives it the feeling of a little keepsake, not just a notebook.
• The slim wooden-looking detail on the front adds a simple, rustic contrast to the soft paper surface.
• Its pocket format suits quick notes, small sketches, reminders and thoughts written away from a desk.
• Each cover has its own movement and colour placement, so the marbling feels personal rather than uniform.

Lokta paper with a natural feel

Made with Lokta paper and mixed coloured cotton fibres, this notebook has the quiet texture people often look for in handmade stationery. It is not a polished office pad. It feels more tactile, more intimate, and better suited to slower notes, lists, sketches and small daily records.

How to use and keep it well

Slip it into a coat pocket, handbag or travel pouch, and use it whenever a thought would otherwise disappear. Keep it dry, as natural paper and fibre covers dislike damp, and store it away from anything that may catch or crush the fastening.

Lokta paper from Nepal

Lokta paper is closely associated with Nepalese papermaking, where its natural fibres are valued for their character and strength. In a notebook like this, the appeal is simple and immediate: the pages invite a more deliberate kind of writing, while the marbled cover gives each piece a small sense of ceremony. It belongs with reflective habits, travel memories, sketches, poems, intentions, shopping lists and all the ordinary fragments that become meaningful once written down.

A thoughtful little gift

Common questions

Is this a smooth office-style notebook?
No. Lokta paper is chosen for its natural, handmade character, so expect a more tactile feel than standard machine-made stationery.

Will every cover look exactly like the photo?
No. The marbled cotton fibres vary from notebook to notebook, which is part of the character of this handmade piece.
