How can you tell if Murano glass labels are fake?
One way to tell if Murano labels are fake is to compare them to images of the labels found on authentic pieces. You can find images of labels for different Murano glassmakers on trusted online resources. Compare the label on your item to these images, looking for any inconsistencies or errors that could indicate your glassware is a replica. Another option is to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer authenticate your piece. Shop a diverse assortment of Murano glass on 1stDibs.
