Woven from the resilient fibers of the Saharan aloe vera cactus — often called cactus silk or Sabra silk — this pillow measures approximately 19" square. Note: the cover is intentionally sized slightly smaller than a standard 20"x20" insert, giving it a fuller, more tailored look once stuffed — typical of handwoven cactus silk covers, not a sizing error. Finished with a coordinating braided cord along the seams and raw corner fringe. Each piece is one of a kind; small variation in stitch and size is part of its handmade character.

This is a handmade Moroccan cactus silk pillow, approximately 19" square (fits a 20" insert), in rust with a central stick-figure medallion, corner star motifs, and dashed borders.

Q: Why is the pillow cover smaller than the recommended insert size? A: Handwoven cactus silk covers are traditionally made slightly smaller than the insert on purpose — it creates a firmer, more tailored look with no loose or baggy fabric, rather than a flaw in sizing. See less
