Murano Christmas tree done in sommerso style with aventurine heated to golden center with sticker... Base or bottom matches the clear polished surface. Value? Maker?

Since there is no other response, I'll stick my head over the parapet.
I don't think I have ever seen this label (I see many hundreds every week).
IMHO It could be
a)very recently introduced by a small factory that has not yet reached the secondary market, or
b) it could come from somewhere other than Murano. ,or
c) it could have been added after wholesale by a retailer, and unrecorded hithertoe

It is a common sticker from the late 80's and beyond. I've seen them in red, green, dark blue and yellow...........Jerry

Do you have any photos of these others? It could be very helpful.

Not a label that we have in the labels album http://www.yobunny.org.uk/glassgallery/thumbnails.php?album=102 (http://www.yobunny.org.uk/glassgallery/thumbnails.php?album=102) may we add it please carlovision?

Yes you may add the red label if haven't already. I would love a valuation and a designer if it is in fact from the '80s.

The item is still available new. I don't see any characteristic that would make this particular version more expensive than its modern equivilent. If you google on original murano glass design Christmas, you'll find them in a range of sizes, and be able to estimate the value.
