Sapphire Violin (サファイアバイオリン Safaia Baiorin) is a violin-like weapon in Fairytale Pretty Cure! used by Cure Mythical to perform Melodia di Saggezza. The weapon made its first appearance in episode 26 as an old violin in the hands of Tomoka's elder brother Tomokazu, but its powers aren't awoken until episode 27 once they pass through Cure Mythical's hands.
In episode 28, it is revealed that the Sapphire Violin has a lock and could need a key to unlock even greater power.
