Hi Barandi,
it´s the label of Sanyo (or was it Sanyu - someone may correct me) Glass.
Being complete it would read: ´Made in Japan´. Unfortunately this is all
information I can give. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me will
me able to give you more information on this glassworks.
BTW welcome to GMB!  :)

edit: Hi Keith - crossing...

An old post I know but saw a similar vase in red ribbed and got a shot of the label. The pic on here and this new one give a good idea of the label. A lot of wear on the base similar to 50's 60's pieces I have. Forgot to take a pic of the vase itself  ::)
