This animal counted cross-stitch pattern entitled Metallic Obsidian Horse shows a magnificent, highly stylized horse adorned with stitching that looks like intricate metallic filigree and jewel-like textures as it trots gracefully through a muted, forest landscape. (While this pattern looks like it's beaded, it is not; nevertheless, the stitching resembles beaded work). The scene captures a "peak" moment of dark elegance, where the deep obsidian hues of the horse's dark mane and tail contrast sharply with the shimmering platinum and gold tones of its armored body. Like myself, you will no doubt be captivated by the relief-style depth of the floral metalwork and the soft light glowing through the background trees. The rich antique palette makes this complex, fantasy-inspired stallion simply breathtaking! It is a truly spectacular addition to our "Animals" category. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect. Our charts are in black and white only.
