On Chaumet:
"The history of Chaumet has been entwined with the History of France ever since its founding in 1780, in Paris. Indeed, the Maison very quickly became the official jeweller to Empress Josephine. The High Jewellery savoir-faire of the Maison has been passed down through generations of jewellers for 235 years. Crafted at the very heart of the place Vendôme, the jewellery and watchmaking creations reflect these exceptional skills and pay tribute to the Parisian style."

On the brooch: It's series number (and the explicit mention of Paris) makes me think it's a relatively recent piece. Somewhere in the 1950s-1970s area. Aside from the one keramikos linked, there's a few more Chaumet insect brooches with similar marks on 1stdibs that they assign to those decades.
That is one spectacular elegant bee!
Thank you everyone for your help and your compliments. I have verified that it is legitimate Chaumet. the jeweler that I took it too was very very impressed in the quality of the craftsmanship. I'm still waiting to hear back from the company.
