Handmade and Decorative Paper
The Leaf Doodle Storyteller features playful, bold and beautiful designs on handmade Indian cotton rag paper. Complementing this is a glorious array of handmade papers: Nepalese lokta in earth tones, Thai mulberry papers with natural inclusions, and shibori crinkle two-toned papers.
Beautiful handmade lokta paper from Nepal is one of the primary papers used in Hypatia Storytellers. Lokta is produced using bark from the daphne shrub, a cousin to the laurel and the rhododendron. Lokta is very eco-friendly, as the plant regenerates quickly and is one of the few under-utilized plant resources in the world.
Each lokta sheet is made by hand and celebrates its “wabi sabi” beauty. Delightful to write, paint, and glue on, it is incredibly strong and flexible. All of the handmade pages of the Hypatia Storytellers can also be used, in addition to the archival plain page soft white paper in between each decorative sheet!
Natural Raw Leather
Natural raw leather full of character with an aged, rustic, one-of-a-kind look and distinctive pull-up.
Natural leather develops a rich patina over time and may darken, soften, and develop color variations.
Each scratch, scuff, and crease tells a story, adding depth and personality to the leather’s surface.
When desired or needed, “Leather CPR” (easily purchased through Amazon) can be massaged into the leather to restore its moisture and erase scratches.
