The Chatenet logo is a chrome emblem shaped like a pointed crown, with the name CHATENET in grey capitals below it. Chatenet is a French microcar maker from Pierre-Buffière.

The Chatenet emblem is a polished metal shape with a tall spike in the middle. Swept points fan out to the left and right, so the outline reads as a crown or a pair of wings. The metal is silver and grey with a glossy chrome finish, and the shape carries no letters, so the Chatenet symbol works on its own as the badge. Below it the name CHATENET is set in wide, thin grey capitals with lines cut through the letters, which gives the name a light look next to the heavy metal shape.

On the cars, the Chatenet badge is a chrome piece fitted to the body, and its reflections change with the light around it. As a Chatenet car logo it is a single shape with no colour beyond the metal. The grey of the lettering matches the grey of the metal, so the badge and the name read as one piece. The page offers the Chatenet logo PNG with a transparent background.
