Hi I have a Black Glass Footed Bowl with White inside. It is marked with a Silver foil sticker Murano AR It is about 7” across the top. Any information you can give me would be appreciated. I have looked through the web and found a lot of Murano Glass but nothing that looks like this one. I am a Black Glass collector and I think this bowl was in a large lot of black glass I bought about 20 years ago. Thank You for your help.

Here are the pictures of the bowl and label.

Hi Guest,
Looks like it could be Moretti. I recently saw a few auctions where the maker was Moretti and the pieces looked like yours.

Hi
A better look at the label would help - can you post a clear pic of it?
I collect Carlo Moretti and don't recognise this - the other Moretti companies are Moretti & Fratelli, Ercole, Moretti Ulderico & Cie - it could be one of those - Moretti companies usually signed as well as label - the AR makes bit unlikely to be Moretti - the A is likely to stand for 'Arte' or 'Artistico' etc - it's the R you need to source - I will get back to you

Hi David555,
My comment on Moretti was a suggestion since that same week I saw similar pieces listed as Moretti, not that it "was" Moretti. Sorry if I confused anyone.
