Woven from the fibres of the Moroccan agave cactus, this blush pillow holds its colour the way early morning holds light — gently, without insistence. The pale pink ground of sabra silk carries subtle geometric Amazigh motifs woven directly into the fabric, their ivory lines barely raised above the surface. Corner tassels at each edge. A piece that whispers rather than announces.
Provenance
Each TIGEMI piece is individually sourced and documented for its texture, weaving character, and handmade irregularities. Crafted on traditional looms by artisan women in Morocco, no two pieces are ever exactly alike.
Sabra — also known as cactus silk — is a plant-based fibre extracted from the leaves of the Agave cactus, native to Morocco. Naturally lustrous and lightweight, it develops a soft sheen with time and wear. This piece is hand-loomed using traditional bidaia techniques, giving it a subtle texture and a surface that catches the light with quiet depth.

Styling Notes
This blush pillow pairs with everything that already lives in a quiet room — warm ivory linens, natural jute, raw linen, aged terracotta. Layer it on a cream sofa or a linen daybed. Let it recede and then be discovered.
Care & Longevity
Spot clean gently or hand wash with care, then lay flat to dry. Because sabra is a natural handmade textile, subtle variations in weave, tone, and texture are part of its character.
Because each piece is woven by hand using traditional bidaia tools, dimensions may vary slightly from piece to piece. This is a natural characteristic of the handmade process — not a defect — and part of what makes each TIGEMI piece genuinely individually handmade in Morocco — no two pieces are ever exactly alike.
