A framed border and two stacked bowtie-diamond medallions anchor the center of this handcrafted Moroccan cactus silk pillow, hand-stitched in white against a sage-green ground, with four star motifs marking the corners. Woven from the resilient fibers of the Saharan aloe vera cactus — often called cactus silk or Sabra silk — this pillow measures approximately 20" square. The embroidery is hand-worked by Moroccan artisans in a technique passed down through generations of Berber weavers, finished with a coordinating braided cord along the seams and raw fringe at the corners. This size works beautifully layered with larger pillows on a sofa or bed, adding a pop of color and texture without overwhelming the arrangement. Each piece is one of a kind, and small variations in stitch placement, tone, and exact dimension are part of its handmade character.
This is a handmade Moroccan cactus silk pillow, 20" square, in sage green with a stacked diamond medallion and four corner stars.
Q: Is sage green a common color for Moroccan cactus silk pillows? A: Less common than earth tones like rust and ivory — green requires a more complex natural dye process, making it a rarer color-way.
