Magnetar Lantern Kit
Tax included where applicable. Delivery, rigging and commissioning arranged by your concierge.
ELVARNIXO Shaping — light is made at the last metre
The Magnetar is the face-flattering department: dish curves tuned for that mid-fall the jaw loves, deflectors in three temperaments, and diffusion socks for the days the brief says gentle.
A parabolic is a precision instrument pretending to be an umbrella: sixteen or twenty-four ribs holding a true curve, a focusing rod that glides and locks, and fabrics whose silver keeps its colour after the two-hundredth assembly. Ours are hand-finished, serialised, and repairable rib by rib.
Design & Craft
- Dish curves tuned for the jaw-flattering mid-fall
- Lanterns wrap rooms in one soft decision
- Textiles woven and graded for neutral colour after years of vans
- Beam pattern measured on our photometric bench — the listing is the box
- Frames open in seconds and forgive the two-hundredth assembly

Care
Open and close by the hub, not the ribs; keep speedrings matched to their fixture; and shake dust from grids rather than washing them. Fabrics keep their neutrality for years if they travel in their sleeves.
Questions, Answered
Grids included?
Where the listing says so; otherwise they are options. Grid angles are true to label — measured, not rounded.
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.
