Yes, it is a Fratelli Toso label.  I haven't seen the vase before, but wouldn't be surprised if it was them. Do you have a reason to feel the label is not original to the vase?

hi anita, thanks for your reply.
the label is original to the vase. - i thought it could be a generic murano label, because it's only called "murano glass".
do you know during which time this label was used?

It was used by FT for many years -- 1950-70s that I know about. Some pieces had slightly smaller versions of the label. I am not sure if there was a difference in time between the larger and smaller labels, or if it was just a random thing.
