Artists’ handmade paper, made in Bhutan. This quality artist resho paper is made from the bast fibre of de-nar lokta, resulting in a darker toned and harder surface than typical Nepalese lokta paper. The paper is made in the traditional Himalayan 'floating mould' way, where the pulp is poured onto the paper frame . The mould is then left in the sun to dry naturally, imparting a slightly textured laid pattern throughout the fine crisp paper.
