Lady Blunt Stradivarius Violin
The Lady Blunt is a Stradivarius violin from the time of his heyday. The near-perfect, original state of this 1721 Stradivarius violin makes it a unique piece of musical history. It's also considered one of the world's two most valuable and rare Stradivarius violins.
The Lady Blunt, unlike other Stradivarius violins such as The Milstein, has never been frequently played. As a result, unlike some other historical violins, this Stradivarius has escaped the damaging effects of regular playing. Without a doubt, the 'Lady Blunt' is a well-preserved work of musical art that will be passed down to future generations in its whole. It was eventually sold at a private auction for $15.9 million.
Price: $15.9 million.
