Description
Moroccan silk sabra cushions with cacti
This unique Moroccan cushion is handwoven and hand dyed. The fabric is commonly known as “cactus silk” or “sabra silk”.
Spiny leaves from sustainable Saharan agave cacti are harvested, hammered and then soaked to release fibers. The fibers are then hand-spun using traditional processes to create cactus silk. The silk is then combined with camel wool and hand-woven on a loom to create cactus silk rugs which are then made into these vintage cushion covers.
The cushion features ancient symbolic Berber motifs from the High Atlas Mountains in Morocco and has a hand-sown, woven fringe with a tassel on each corner.
Each piece features a unique, intricately embroidered design, and no two will be exactly the same!
