Chiaro Parabolic 178
Tax included where applicable. Delivery, rigging and commissioning arranged by your concierge.
ELVARNIXO Shaping — light is made at the last metre
Parabolics reward precision and punish pretenders; the Chiaro is precise — measured beam maps at three positions, silver that keeps its colour, and ribs that replace one by one instead of retiring the instrument.
Light is shaped at the last metre, so the last metre gets the best materials: silver and white textiles woven and measured for even spread, diffusion in graded weights that stay neutral, and frames that open in seconds and survive years of vans. Every modifier is measured on our photometric bench — the beam pattern in the listing is the beam pattern in the box.

Questions, Answered
Which mount does it fit?
S-type as standard, with speedrings for the major systems listed in the options. Tell the concierge your fixtures and we confirm fitment before dispatch.
Grids included?
Where the listing says so; otherwise they are options. Grid angles are true to label — measured, not rounded.
The ELVARNIXO Promise
Every ELVARNIXO fixture ships with its own photometric and colour report — CRI, TLCI and SSI measured on our Prague bench for that serial number, not copied from a brochure.
