Lokta Gift Wrap & Cards

Beautiful, Eco-Friendly Gift Wrapping from Handmade Lokta Paper

Lokta gift wrap and greeting cards offer an eco-friendly, artisan alternative to mass-produced paper products. Our Lokta wrapping paper is hand-printed using traditional wooden block stamps — each sheet carries the subtle imperfections and organic beauty of a handmade product. Greeting cards are cut from heavier-weight Lokta paper, often featuring hand-applied dried flowers, leaves, or fabric elements. The natural texture and warm tone of Lokta paper make these products stand out in a market dominated by glossy machine-made alternatives. They are particularly popular in fair trade stores, eco-boutiques, stationery shops, and museum gift stores.

How It's Made

Understanding the production process helps you appreciate the craftsmanship and communicate the product story to your customers.

Gift wrap production starts with Lokta paper sheets (typically 50x75cm or 60x90cm). Artisans apply designs using hand-carved wooden blocks dipped in vegetable-based ink — a traditional printing method that predates movable type. Popular motifs include floral patterns, geometric designs, Buddhist symbols, and Himalayan wildlife. For premium wraps, designs are screen-printed or hand-painted. Greeting cards are cut from heavier Lokta paper (80-120 GSM), scored and folded, and decorated with block prints, embossed designs, or hand-applied natural elements (pressed flowers, leaves, fabric scraps).

Lokta Gift Wrap & Cards — Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order gift wrap with custom printed designs?
Yes, we can create custom wooden printing blocks with your designs — logos, patterns, text, or any motif. Custom block creation takes 1-2 weeks, after which we can print unlimited quantities. Alternatively, for complex designs, we offer screen printing on Lokta paper. Minimum order for custom prints is 500 sheets.
Is Lokta gift wrap recyclable and compostable?
Yes, Lokta paper is 100% natural, biodegradable, and compostable. It is made from plant fibers with no synthetic additives. Our inks are vegetable-based. Unlike glossy commercial gift wrap which often contains plastic coating, Lokta gift wrap can be composted at home. This eco-friendly story is a major selling point for environmentally conscious consumers.
