Well, no.
Yeah, the flagships from Focal & Sonus Faber are what comes to mind when I think of beautiful speakers.

I think in the case of Sonus Faber you mean the "Reference Collection"
(But yeh I agree, they're great-looking speakers.)

Personally, I'm attracted to the look of in-walls...
... or anything that's placed out of view behind an acoustically transparent screen (i.e. not seeing the speakers at all).

I'm not a fan of painted MDF speakers. I like to see a nicely finished wood veneer.

This is the most beautiful speaker in the world, and I'm sticking to it!

looks like something hanging from the ceiling at a Van Halen show circa 1987

Beautiful speakers. Either an oxymoron or the most subjective part of the hobby.

This thread has got me thinking. Probaly useless thoughts to all others than myself, but it's nice to do some inner exploration once in a while
99% of all "sculptural" speakers I wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole. They remind me of that episode of Friends where Joey becomes wealthy and buys all of the most ridiculous "modern" interior decoration he can get his hands on.
I do like the look of some of those that aim for absolute minimalism. For instance these:
All of the speakers I'd like to own would be an eyesore to me in some minor degree or another, but I don't mind sacrificing a bit of aesthetics in the name of form-follows-function, as long as it doesn't become the dominant feature.
The most beautiful speakers would probably be some Dayton Audio exciters on the back of some nice artwork

You're gonna to tell me you hate my DIY effort ...
.
... Well FINE. I would have preferred a piano gloss finish, but this was the best I could do.
Hate is an extreme word. Being a woodworker, it's simply that I prefer objects made from nicely finished hardwood when it comes to my personal space.
