Hello! I am new to the forum. I wanted to ask you about a hallmark that I am not able to recognize. It belongs to a brooch that has several marks that place it at the end of the 19th century, early 20th century, in Vienna. But I have not been able to confirm one of the brands. It's really small. It looks like an ant (could be a spider or a beetle). I attach my own drawing, although I can't see the area on the left well.
If anyone knows what this brand is, please tell me. Thank you!

Trev.

Looks like French charançon import mark.

The weevil (charançon) hallmark was introduced January 13, 1864 for the marking of gold and silver items imported from countries with which France had signed reciprocal customs treaties. After June 28, 1893, and the creation of the weevil hallmark in an oval frame, it was used only for the marking of gold items until its withdrawal on February 28, 1990. The X indicates the position of the assay office mark, which can help identify in which town the object was hallmarked.

I've included a clearer photo for reference.

Correction. Read creation in 1893 of the weevil hallmark in a RECTANGULAR frame, not oval
