Woven by hand in Marrakech using traditional sabra cactus silk, this handwoven pillow cover carries the warm, sun-baked depth of Moroccan terracotta. A deep rust tone — naturally plant-dyed — with ivory Berber diamond glyphs stitched stitch by stitch across the surface.
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 silk is a plant-based fiber traditionally derived from cactus leaves, loved for its soft hand, subtle sheen, and naturally aged appearance.

Styling Notes
Beautiful layered with sand linen, warm neutrals, aged wood and natural ceramics. Designed for earthy living rooms, desert-inspired bedrooms, and collected homes.
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.
