Murano 101: Murano Labels!!!
svazzo:
Hi David,
Yea it looks like a 3, maybe a B or a Z? I know in German the Z can look a bit like a 3, but no idea if in Italian it is used the same way. Maybe someone out there knows a bit more Italian or has come across the label. Also have no idea what the "K" is, the gallery logo?
--- Quote from: "paradisetrader" ---... Have you come across any plain paper makers labels with just a product number ? or original price on them ? maybe with a company name written in pen ?

Maybe the mark is Bvigndnuova like Bvlgari One of the hot designers right now (helps to have a teenage fashionista) :wink:

A good point: it could be a Gallery/Dealer label rather than a maker. Doesn't entirely rule it out as being Murano then.
The 'z' character in German normally applies to lower-case only and then has a flat-top. Purely a German character though to the best of my knowledge.
Grayhorse: nice idea - must admit I did think Russian... except for the mention of Firenze, of course :wink: but it is possibly a stylistic character.
For some reason I'm not being informed of all the updates to this board (not just this thread) so I might be a bit late replying.
Connie:
Bvlgari (Bulgari) is an Italian company 8)
Edited to add: I was wrong Bvlgari Perfumes was found in Switzerland in 1993 :roll:
The point I was trying to make is that a "u" is sometimes written like a "v" for flaire or marketing - gives the illusion of exotic.
David E:
Yes, I realise that - I was referring to the '3' character from Javier's label looking rather Russian :)
