What is the prettiest loudspeaker?

Lookswise, it is hard to beat the big Sonus Faber speakers
 
So many speakers are pretty. Speakers have gone wild with price. No way to attribute what you pay now to cabinet design and fimish. 5 to 10 years ago, the beautiful woodwork was a big piece of the price. Now, not so much on the name brand. New uber expensive still look good. But cabinet finish doesn't seem to fit into pricing.
 
In your opinion, who makes -or- what is the prettiest loudspeaker regardless of performance or if it's still in production? Maybe a speaker with the best WAF? Most of the beautiful loudspeakers seem to be from Europe. No need to post the ugliest: there are plenty of those to go around! :rolleyes:Apologies if previously discussed. Thanks!

This may not necessarily be the "prettiest" speaker I have ran across, but I will say that this is the very first speaker that came to mind when this thread started. The finish and appointments of this speaker are absolutely top notch, at least in my opinion. YMMV. I just seem to drool, every time I see photos of them.

The Living Voice Vox Olympian horn speaker and Elysian sub combo.

Just really like the geometry and simplicity of appearance. Shame the originals came in naff colours/finishes. Though they did do an arty version that looked very cool.
