Could you try tilting the brooch to see if you could get a clearer picture.  I played with it a bit but still can't make it out. Unless someone more familiar with jewelry makers recognizes the name.

say LANVIN

[mart]

Lanvin was popular during the 50`s and 60`s !! I remember some of our TV game shows of that period had them as sponsors !! They had a line of jewelry and perfume that I remember !! I am trying to remember the show  !! I just remember they said "made by Lanvin of Paris" when giving one of their items as a prize !!

Jeanne-Marie Lanvin 1867 to 1946,, French fashion designer !! Company still in operation !!
