Thanks Rose, definitely the same labelwonder if it's a makers label or a shop or a distributor all a bit confusing with San Marco and San Marcos coming up in a Google search.

I would suggest that as it says Made in Italy, not made in Murano, it was only sold in Murano or sold by a distributor in Murano. I think it's a a bit of a weasley label.
